Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 14, 28 July 2023., 2023 Abstract In this paper, we present the first high‐speed video observation of a cloud‐to‐ground lightning flash and its associated downward‐directed Terrestrial Gamma‐ray Flash (TGF). The optical emission of the event was observed by a high‐speed video camera running at 40,000 frames per second in conjunction with the Telescope Array Surface Detector ...

Library of Simulated Gamma‐Ray Glows and Application to Previous Airborne Observations
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 128, Issue 9, 16 May 2023., 2023 Abstract Gamma‐Ray Glows (GRGs) are high energy radiation originating from thunderclouds, in the MeV energy regime, with typical duration of seconds to minutes, and sources extended over several to tens of square kilometers. GRGs have been observed from detectors placed on ground, inside aircraft and on balloons.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 128, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract We present long‐term density trends of the Earth's upper atmosphere at altitudes between 71 and 116 km, based on atmospheric occultations of the Crab Nebula observed with X‐ray astronomy satellites, ASCA, RXTE, Suzaku, NuSTAR, and Hitomi. The combination of the five satellites provides a time period of 28 years from 1994 to 2022.

Who's Afraid of the Supersymmetric Dark? The Standard Model vs Low‐Energy Supergravity
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 70, Issue 7-8, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Use of supergravity equations in astronomy and late‐universe cosmology is often criticized on three grounds: (i) phenomenological success usually depends on the supergravity form for the scalar potential applying at the relevant energies; (ii$ii$) the low‐energy scalar potential is extremely sensitive to quantum effects involving very massive ...

Space Weather, Volume 20, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Radiation transport codes have been an increasingly important tool for studying the space radiation environment, which includes high‐energy and high‐nuclear‐charge particles. The unique advantage of transport models lies in covering a wider range of particles, energies, and angles than would be attainable in a laboratory or measurable by an ...

Expanding Nuclear Physics Horizons with the Gamma Factory
Annalen der Physik, Volume 534, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022 The Gamma Factory is an ambitious proposal for a source of photons with energies up to hundreds of MeV and photon fluxes exceeding those of the currently available gamma sources by orders of magnitude. The paper surveys the new opportunities in nuclear physics and related fields that may be afforded by the this facility. Abstract The Gamma Factory (GF)

Standard Solar Neutrinos [PDF]
Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl. 48 (1996) 335-342, 1996 The predictions of an improved standard solar model are compared with the observations of the four solar neutrino experiments. The improved model includes premain sequence evolution, element diffusion, partial ionization effects, and all the possible nuclear reactions between the main elements.

Revisiting the Limits of Atmospheric Temperature Retrieval From Cosmic‐Ray Measurements
Earth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022 Abstract A priori, cosmic‐ray measurements offer a unique capability to determine the vertical profile of atmospheric temperatures directly from ground. However, despite the increased understanding of the impact of the atmosphere on cosmic‐ray rates, attempts to explore the technological potential of the latter for atmospheric physics remain very ...
