The exposure of the hybrid detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration

The Pierre Auger Observatory is a detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It consists of a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level and a fluorescence detec…

Update on the correlation of the highest energy cosmic rays with nearby extragalactic matter

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +472

Data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory through 31 August 2007 showed evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of cosmic rays above the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuz'min ene…

No Indications of Axion-Like Particles From Fermi

Alexander V. Belikov, Lisa Goodenough, Dan Hooper

As very high energy (~100 GeV) gamma rays travel over cosmological distances, their flux is attenuated through interactions with the extragalactic background light. Observations of…

Spherical harmonics analysis of Fermi gamma-ray data and the Galactic dark matter halo

Dmitry Malyshev, Jo Bovy, Ilias Cholis

We argue that the decomposition of gamma-ray maps in spherical harmonics is a sensitive tool to study dark matter (DM) annihilation or decay in the main Galactic halo of the Milky…

New Constraints from PAMELA anti-proton data on Annihilating and Decaying Dark Matter

Ilias Cholis

Recently the PAMELA experiment has released its updated anti-proton flux and anti-proton to proton flux ratio data up to energies of ~200GeV. With no clear excess of cosmic ray ant…

Off-Axis Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow Modeling Based On A Two-Dimensional Axisymmetric Hydrodynamics Simulation

Hendrik van Eerten, Weiqun Zhang, Andrew MacFadyen

Starting as highly relativistic collimated jets, gamma-ray burst outflows gradually decelerate and become non-relativistic spherical blast waves. Although detailed analytical solut…
