Low-energy break in the spectrum of Galactic cosmic rays

A. Neronov, D. V. Semikoz, A. M. Taylor

Measurements of the low energy spectrum of Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) by detectors at or near the Earth are affected by Solar modulation. To overcome this difficulty, we consider n…

Cosmic Ray Anisotropy as Signature for the Transition from Galactic to Extragalactic Cosmic Rays

G. Giacinti, M. Kachelriess, D. V. Semikoz +1

We constrain the energy at which the transition from Galactic to extragalactic cosmic rays occurs by computing the anisotropy at Earth of cosmic rays emitted by Galactic sources. S…

Trigger and Aperture of the Surface Detector Array of the Pierre Auger Observatory

J. Abraham, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +469

The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory consists of 1600 water-Cherenkov detectors, for the study of extensive air showers (EAS) generated by ultra-high-energy c…

Apparent superluminal neutrino propagation caused by nonlinear coherent interactions in matter

Ram Brustein, Dmitri Semikoz

Quantum coherence can significantly increase the strength of the forward scattering of neutrinos propagating through the Earth and interacting with matter. The index of refraction…

Propagation of Ultrahigh Energy Nuclei in the Magnetic Field of our Galaxy

G. Giacinti, M. Kachelriess, D. V. Semikoz +1

In this work, we present detailed simulations for propagation of ultra-high energy (UHE) heavy nuclei, with E > 60 EeV, within recent Galactic Magnetic Field (GMF) models. We inves…

Search for Nuclei Sources in the Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Ray Data

G. Giacinti, D. V. Semikoz

We present a new method to search for heavy nuclei sources, on top of background, in the Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Ray data. We apply it to the 69 events with energies E>55 EeV publ…
