Opening Remarks ~ Prospects of very high energy cosmic ray interactions for astroparticle physics [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
Hadronic interactions of very high energy cosmic rays have been studied in various aspects of motivation. In recent decades, mainly motivated by air shower experiments, modelling of very high energy cosmic ray interactions have been greatly improved ...

Radiation Backgrounds at Cosmic Dawn: X-Rays from Compact Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We compute the expected X-ray diffuse background and radiative feedback on the intergalactic medium (IGM) from X-ray binaries prior to and during the epoch of reionization. The cosmic evolution of compact binaries is followed using a population synthesis

Spectra of He Isotopes and the 3He/4He Ratio

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Since its launch, the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-02 (AMS-02) has delivered outstanding quality measurements of the spectra of cosmic-ray (CR) species, e ^± , $\bar{p}$ , and nuclei (H–Si, S, Fe), which have resulted in a number of breakthroughs. Besides

The mass composition of cosmic rays measured with LOFAR

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
High-energy cosmic rays, impinging on the atmosphere of the Earth initiate cascades of secondary particles, the extensive air showers. The electrons and positrons in the air shower emit electromagnetic radiation.

ПРОБЛЕМА ПРОИСХОЖДЕНИЯ КОСМИЧЕСКИХ ЛУЧЕЙ СВЕРХВЫСОКИХ ЭНЕРГИЙ

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2011
The problem of cosmic ray origin comes to two main questions: were and how cosmic particles are accelerated up to very high energies. In this paper, arguments in favor of two basic sources of cosmic rays (Galaxy and Metagalaxy) are considered and ...

ACCELERATION OF COSMIC RAYS AT COSMIC SHOCKS

open access: yesJournal of The Korean Astronomical Society, 2003
Nonthermal particles can be produced due to incomplete thermalization at collisionless shocks and further accelerated to very high energies via diffusive shock acceleration. In a previous study we explored the cosmic ray (CR) acceleration at cosmic shocks through numerical simulations of CR modified, quasi-parallel shocks in 1D plane-parallel geometry ...

A Rigorous Solution to the Superluminal Issue in the Diffusion Equation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Superluminal propagation is an intrinsic problem in the diffusion equation and has not been effectively addressed for a long time. In this work, a rigorous solution to this issue is obtained under the assumption that particles undergo a random flight ...

The cosmic-ray staircase: the outcome of the cosmic-ray acoustic instability

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT Recently, cosmic rays (CRs) have emerged as a leading candidate for driving galactic winds. Small-scale processes can dramatically affect global wind properties. We run two-moment simulations of CR streaming to study how sound waves are driven unstable by phase-shifted CR forces and CR heating.
