Correlation of the highest-energy cosmic rays with the positions of nearby active galactic nuclei
(2008)
Data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory provide evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of the cosmic rays with the highest-energies, which are correlated with the positions of relatively nearby active ...
A new method for reconstructing the muon lateral distribution with an array of segmented counters
(Elsevier Science, 2015-01)
Although the origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays is still unknown, significant progress has been achieved in last decades with the construction of large arrays that are currently taking data. One of the most important ...
Parametrization of gamma-ray production cross sections for p p interactions in a broad proton energy range from the kinematic threshold to PeV energies
(American Physical Society, 2014-12)
Using publicly available Monte Carlo codes as well as compilation of published data on p--p interactions for proton kinetic energy below 2 GeV, we parametrize the energy spectra and production rates of γ-rays by simple but ...
Determination of the calorimetric energy in extensive air showers
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2004)
Runaway stars as cosmic ray injectors inside molecular clouds
(Wiley, 2015-03)
Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) are a new population of gamma-ray sources, being the target of cosmic rays (CRs) – locally accelerated or not –. These clouds host very young stellar clusters where massive star formation takes ...
