From DAMPE to LHAASO: Rigidity Scales and Composition Changes in Galactic Cosmic Rays

Ruo-Yu Liu, Zhen Cao

This commentary briefly reviews recent measurements from DAMPE and LHAASO on cosmic rays to explore why the spectra of different species change shape across the TeV-PeV energy rang…

Transient Large-Scale Anisotropy in TeV Cosmic Rays due to an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +309

Large- or medium-scale cosmic ray anisotropy at TeV energies has not previously been confirmed to vary with time. Transient anisotropy changes have been observed below 150 GeV, esp…

A tera-electronvolt afterglow from a narrow jet in an extremely bright gamma-ray burst 221009A

LHAASO Collaboration

Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have an afterglow in the tera-electronvolt (TeV) band, but the early onset of this afterglow has not been observed. We report observations with the Lar…
