Cosmological implications of photon-flux upper limits at ultra-high energies in scenarios of Planckian-interacting massive particles for dark matter

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

Using the data of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we report on a search for signatures that would be suggestive of super-heavy particles decaying in the Galactic halo. From the lack…

Investigating Hadronic Interactions at Ultra-High Energies with the Pierre Auger Observatory

Isabel Goos, :, P. Abreu +374

The development of an extensive air shower depends not only on the nature of the primary ultra-high-energy cosmic ray but also on the properties of the hadronic interactions. For e…

A lightning monitoring system for studying transient phenomena in cosmic ray observatories

J. Peña-Rodríguez, P. Salgado-Meza, L. Flórez-Villegas +1

During thunderstorms, the atmospheric electric field can increase above hundreds of kV/m, causing an acceleration in the charged particles of secondary cosmic rays. Such an acceler…

Limits to gauge coupling in the dark sector set by the non-observation of instanton-induced decay of Super-Heavy Dark Matter in the Pierre Auger Observatory data

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374

Instantons, which are non-perturbative solutions to Yang-Mills equations, provide a signal for the occurrence of quantum tunneling between distinct classes of vacua. They can give…
