Strange fireball as an explanation of the muon excess in Auger data
Luis A. Anchordoqui, Haim Goldberg, Thomas J. Weiler
We argue that ultrahigh energy cosmic ray collisions in the Earth atmosphere can probe the strange quark density of the nucleon. These collisions have center-of-mass energies \agt…
Minimal left-right symmetric intersecting D-brane model
Luis A. Anchordoqui, Ignatios Antoniadis, Haim Goldberg +3
We investigate left-right symmetric extensions of the standard model based on open strings ending on D-branes, with gauge bosons due to strings attached to stacks of D-branes and c…
Evidence for a break in the spectrum of astrophysical neutrinos
Luis A. Anchordoqui, Martin M. Block, Loyal Durand +3
The announcement by the IceCube Collaboration of the observation of 53 astrophysical neutrino candidates in the energy range 0.03 \alt E_ν/PeV \alt 2 has been greeted with a great…
Testing Hadronic Interactions at Ultrahigh Energies with Air Showers Measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +435
Ultrahigh energy cosmic ray air showers probe particle physics at energies beyond the reach of accelerators. Here we introduce a new method to test hadronic interaction models with…
Ultrahigh-energy neutrino follow-up of Gravitational Wave events GW150914 and GW151226 with the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +410
On September 14, 2015 the Advanced LIGO detectors observed their first gravitational-wave (GW) transient GW150914. This was followed by a second GW event observed on December 26, 2…
Neutrino lighthouse powered by Sagittarius A* disk dynamo
Luis A. Anchordoqui
We show that the subset of high energy neutrino events detected by IceCube which correlate with the Galactic center (within uncertainties of their reconstructed arrival directions)…
