Multi-Messenger Physics With the Pierre Auger Observatory

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
An overview of the multi-messenger capabilities of the Pierre Auger Observatory is presented. The techniques and performance of searching for Ultra-High Energy neutrinos, photons and neutrons are described. Some of the most relevant results are reviewed,

Detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays and neutrinos with lunar orbital radio telescope

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Particle cascades induced by ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic rays and neutrinos impacting on the lunar regolith usually radiate Cherenkov radio emissions due to the presence of excess negative charge, which is known as Askaryan effect. Several experiments

Production of high-energy neutrinos in binary-neutron-star merger events [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
High-energy neutral astrophysical messengers, such as neutrinos and photons, can be produced by the interaction of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) with radiation fields, either during extragalactic propagation or within source environments ...

Search for ultra-high energy photons by complex data of the Yakutsk array [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
Complex analysis of the Yakutsk array data in order to find air showers produced by photons with energy ≥1018 eV is carried out. On the basis of simulations and experimental data, selection criteria are formed and air showers with characteristics close ...

A Method to Estimate the Primary Mass of Ultrahigh-energy Cosmic Rays from Measurements of the Depth of the Shower Maximum and the Muon Content

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The origin and mass composition of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays is one of the big open questions of modern physics. Estimating the mass of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays always involves the comparison of data with simulations using hadronic interaction ...

SLAC T-510: Radio emission from particle cascades in the presence of a magnetic field

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Cosmic ray induced particle cascades radiate in radio frequencies in the Earth’s atmosphere. Geomagnetic and Askaryan emission provide an effective way to detect ultra-high energy cosmic rays.

On parton distributions in a photon gas

open access: yes, 2009
In some cases it may be useful to know parton distributions in a photon gas. This may be relevant, e.g., for the analysis of interactions of high energy cosmic ray particles with the cosmic microwave background radiation.

Gamma-Ray Bursts, Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays, and Cosmic Gamma-Ray Background [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We argue that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) may be the origin of the cosmic gamma-ray background radiation observed in GeV range. It has theoretically been discussed that protons may carry a much larger amount of energy than electrons in GRBs, and this large ...

Collision of ultra-relativistic proton with strong magnetic field: Production of ultra-high energy photons and neutrinos

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2019
Proton-proton interaction and photo-hadronic interaction in cosmic accelerators are the two main channels for the production of cosmic ultra-high energy photons and neutrinos (TeV-PeV).

Ultra-high energy cosmic rays threshold in Randers-Finsler space

open access: yes, 2008
Kinematics in Finsler space is used to study the propagation of ultra high energy cosmic rays particles through the cosmic microwave background radiation. We find that the GZK threshold is lifted dramatically in Randers-Finsler space.
