Feasibility of Correlated Extensive Air Shower Detection with a Distributed Cosmic-Ray Network
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We explore the sensitivity offered by a global network of cosmic-ray detectors to a novel, unobserved phenomenon: widely separated simultaneous extended air showers.

Simulations of black hole air showers in cosmic ray detectors [PDF]
, 2005 We present a comprehensive study of TeV black hole events in Earth's atmosphere originated by cosmic rays of very high energy. An advanced fortran Monte Carlo code is developed and used to simulate black hole extensive air showers from ultrahigh-energy ...

Extensive air showers from ultrahigh energy gluinos [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2002 We study the proposal that the cosmic ray primaries above the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin (GZK) cutoff are gluino-containing hadrons ($\tilde g$-hadrons). We describe the interaction of $\tilde g$-hadrons with nucleons in the framework of the Gribov-Regge approach using a modified version of the hadronic interaction model QGSJET for the generations of ...

High energy muons in extensive air showers [PDF]
Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2019 The production of very high energy muons inside an extensive air shower is observable at ν telescopes and sensitive to the composition of the primary cosmic ray.

On the mystery of the multi-muon flux at the TeV cosmic-ray energy range [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 Current Monte Carlo simulations do not provide a good description of the muon component of extensive air showers. Many air shower experiments report discrepancies between their data and Monte Carlo predictions, ranging from the TeV scale up to the ...

Latest Cosmic Ray Results from IceTop and IceCube [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019 The IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the geographic South Pole, with its surface array IceTop, detects three different components of extensive air showers: the total signal at the surface, low energy muons on the periphery of the showers, and high energy ...

CORSIKA 8 – Towards a modern framework for the simulation of extensive air showers [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019 Current and future challenges in astroparticle physics require novel simulation tools to achieve higher precision and more flexibility. For three decades the FORTRAN version of CORSIKA served the community in an excellent way.

EUSO: using high energy cosmic rays and neutrinos as messengers from the unknown universe
Annals of Geophysics, 2003 Exploiting the earth atmosphere as a giant detector for the incoming extraterrestrial fl ux of high energy cosmic rays and cosmic neutrinos, the mission «EUSO-Extreme Universe Space Observatory» is devoted to the exploration of the domain of ...
