Millicharged cosmic rays and low recoil detectors [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2021 We consider the production of a "fast flux" of hypothetical millicharged particles (mCPs) in the interstellar medium (ISM). We consider two possible sources induced by cosmic rays: (a) $pp\rightarrow$(meson)$\rightarrow$(mCP) which adds to atmospheric production of mCPs, and (b) cosmic-ray up-scattering on a millicharged component of dark matter.

Cold clouds as cosmic-ray detectors [PDF]
Communications Physics, 2020 AbstractLow energy cosmic-rays (CRs) are responsible for gas heating and ionization of interstellar clouds, which in turn introduces coupling to Galactic magnetic fields. So far the CR ionization rate (CRIR) has been estimated using indirect methods, such as its effect on the abundances of various rare molecular species.

SOLAR SYSTEM OBJECTS AS COSMIC RAYS DETECTORS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 In a recent Letter (Rimmer et al. 2014), Jupiter is presented as an efficient detector for Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs), through measurement by an Earth-orbiting satellite of gamma rays from UHECRs showers produced in Jupiter's atmosphere.

On the disintegration of cosmic ray nuclei by solar photons [PDF]
, 1999 We discuss in detail the possibility of observing pairs of simultaneous parallel air showers produced by the fragments of cosmic ray nuclei which disintegrated in collisions with solar photons. We consider scenarios with different cosmic ray compositions,

Electrochemical etching processes for the detection of neutrons and radon-decay products [PDF]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2004 The electrochemical etching, because of its complexity, is of interest when it makes it possible to achieve detection characteristics which are not encountered with the chemical etching.
