Advancing Precision Particle Background Estimation for Future X-Ray Missions: Correlated Variability between the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer and Chandra/XMM-Newton

The Astrophysical Journal
Galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) particles have a significant impact on the particle-induced background of X-ray observatories, and their flux exhibits substantial temporal variability, potentially influencing background levels.

Overestimation of Astrophysical Gamma-Ray Energies during Thunderstorms: Synergy of Galactic and Atmospheric Accelerators

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Particle accelerators abound in space plasmas, saturating the cosmos with fully stripped nuclei and gamma rays, with energies surpassing the capabilities of human-made accelerators by orders of magnitude. Upon reaching Earth’s atmosphere, these particles

Note on the Origin of the Highest Energy Cosmic Rays [PDF]

, 2000
In this note we argue that the galactic model chosen by E.-J. Ahn, G. Medina-Tanco, P.L. Bierman and T. Stanev in their paper discussing the origin of the highest energy cosmic rays, is alone responsible for the focussing of positive particles towards ...

Search for Joint Multimessenger Signals from Potential Galactic Cosmic-Ray Accelerators with HAWC and IceCube

The Astrophysical Journal
The origin of high-energy galactic cosmic rays is yet to be understood, but some galactic cosmic-ray accelerators can accelerate cosmic rays up to PeV energies.
