This book introduces you to the physics of cosmic rays, charged particles which reach us
from known–and maybe unknown–sources in the cosmos. Starting from a brief history of this …

Currently, the technique to detect neutrinos at the EeV energy scale by the radio signals
emitted when they interact in glacial ice, is making the transition from small prototype …

Ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) of energies beyond 10^ 18 eV up to 10^ 20 eV
have been observed for decades, but still little is known about their origin and acceleration …

Les neutrinos, les rayons cosmiques chargés, et les photons de très haute énergie ainsi que
les ondes gravitationnelles fournissent des informations complémentaires pour étudier les …

Although known for decades, the origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays is still baffling
scientists. Recent data from the Pierre Auger Observatory and the Telescope Array have …

The energy of the transition from Galactic to extra-galactic origin of cosmic rays is one of the
major unresolved issues of cosmic-ray physics. However, strong constraints can be obtained …

The theory of quantum gravity (QG) still eludes us. To start with, it is not even clear if gravity
can be quantized like the rest of the fundamental interactions in Nature. For instance, gravity …

Upon their arrival at Earth, cosmic rays (CRs) will have experienced repeated deflections in
magnetic fields since their departure in distant Galactic or extragalactic sources. The spatial …

The scientific achievements of the Pierre Auger Collaboration cover diverse and
complementary fields of research. The search for the origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays …

An overview of the status of the knowledge in the field of ultra-high energy cosmic rays is
presented. The latest results on the spectrum, arrival direction distribution and composition …
