Active Galactic Nuclei: Sources for ultra high energy cosmic rays?

P. L. Biermann, J. K. Becker, L. Caramete +11

The origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays promises to lead us to a deeper understanding of the structure of matter. This is possible through the study of particle collisions at c…

Energy Spectra of Elemental Groups of Cosmic Rays: Update on the KASCADE Unfolding Analysis

KASCADE Collaboration, W. D. Apel

The KASCADE experiment measures extensive air showers induced by cosmic rays in the energy range around the so-called knee. The data of KASCADE have been used in a composition anal…
