School Cosmic Ray Outreach Detector (SCROD)
L. A. Anchordoqui, J. Cook, M. Gabour +8
We report on our studies of applying novel detector technologies developed for LHC-era experiments to cosmic ray detection. In particular, we are investigating usage of scintillati…
Extensive air showers with TeV-scale quantum gravity
Luis Anchordoqui, Haim Goldberg, Thomas McCauley +3
One of the possible consequences of the existence of extra degrees of freedom beyond the electroweak scale is the increase of neutrino-nucleon cross sections () beyond Stan…
Echoes of the fifth dimension?
Luis A. Anchordoqui, Thomas P. McCauley, Stephen Reucroft +1
In this article we examine the question of whether the highest energy cosmic ray primaries could be ultra relativistic magnetic monopoles. The analysis is performed within the fram…
Air shower simulation using {\sc geant4} and commodity parallel computing
L. A. Anchordoqui, G. Cooperman, V. Grinberg +5
We present an evaluation of a simulated cosmic ray shower, based on {\sc geant4} and {\sc top-c}, which tracks all the particles in the shower. {\sc top-c} (Task Oriented Parallel…
Using {\sc top-c} for Commodity Parallel Computing in Cosmic Ray Physics Simulations
G. Alverson, L. A. Anchordoqui, G. Cooperman +5
{\sc top-c} (Task Oriented Parallel C) is a freely available package for parallel computing. It is designed to be easy to learn and to have good tolerance for the high latencies th…
Scalable Parallel Implementation of Geant4 Using Commodity Hardware and Task Oriented Parallel C
Gene Cooperman, Luis Anchordoqui, Victor Grinberg +3
We describe a scalable parallelization of Geant4 using commodity hardware in a collaborative effort between the College of Computer Science and the Department of Physics at Northea…
