Note on galaxy catalogues in UHECR flux modelling

Hylke B. J. Koers, Peter Tinyakov

We consider the dependence of ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) flux predictions on the choice of galaxy catalogue. We demonstrate that model predictions by Koers & Tinyakov (20…

Flux calculations in an inhomogeneous Universe: weighting a flux-limited galaxy sample

Hylke B. J. Koers, Peter Tinyakov

Many astrophysical problems arising within the context of ultra-high energy cosmic rays, very-high energy gamma rays or neutrinos, require calculation of the flux produced by sourc…

Testing large-scale (an)isotropy of ultra-high energy cosmic rays

Hylke B. J. Koers, Peter Tinyakov

We present a simple yet powerful method to test models of cosmic-ray (CR) origin using the distribution of CR arrival directions. The method is statistically unambiguous in the sen…

Neutrino production in nucleonic interactions in gamma-ray bursters

Hylke B. J. Koers

Neutrinos produced in gamma-ray bursters (GRBers) may provide a unique probe for the physics of these extreme astrophysical systems. Here we discuss neutrino production in inelasti…

On the relation between the neutrino flux from Centaurus A and the associated diffuse neutrino flux

Hylke B. J. Koers, Peter Tinyakov

Based on recent results obtained by the Pierre Auger Observatory (PAO), it has been hypothesized that Centaurus A (Cen A) is a source of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) and…

Enhanced high-energy neutrino emission from choked gamma-ray bursts due to meson and muon acceleration

Hylke B. J. Koers, Ralph A. M. J. Wijers

It has been suggested that a potentially large fraction of supernovae could be accompanied by relativistic outflows that stall below the stellar surface. In this letter we point ou…
