Hadronic nature of high-energy emission from the Galactic ridge

We show that the IceCube observation of the Galactic neutrino-flux component confirms the hint of detection of neutrinos from the Galactic ridge (the inner part of the Milky Way disk within the Galactic longitude IlI < 30(degrees)), previously reported by ...

Attaining the PeV frontier of the cosmic ray spectrum in space with HERD

Chiara Perrina

The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection facility (HERD) is a calorimetric experiment planned to be launched in 2027. It will be operational for at least 10 years on board the China Space Station. With HERD we will measure the energy flux of cosmic proto ...

Hint for a TeV neutrino emission from the Galactic Ridge with ANTARES

Andrii Neronov, Javier García Hernández, Randoald Müller

Interactions of cosmic ray protons, atomic nuclei, and electrons in the interstellar medium in the inner part of the Milky Way produce γ-ray flux from the Galactic Ridge. If the γ-ray emission is dominated by proton and nuclei interactions, a neutrino flux ...

Electromagnetic processes of nuclear excitation: from direct photoabsorption to free electron and muon capture

Simone Gargiulo

In the vast expanse of the Universe and on our planet, nuclei exist in a state of excitement. These excited nuclear states (isomers) can persist for varying periods, from fractions of a second to billions of years and beyond, before decaying to their groun ...

A formula for the admittance of laterally excited bulk wave resonators (XBARs)

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Soumya Yandrapalli, Victor Plessky

The recently invented laterally excited bulk wave resonators (XBARs) demonstrate outstanding parameters suitable for the design of low loss filters for the fifth generation of mobile phones. The operation of XBARs can be interpreted as an excitation of ant ...

Nuclear Quantum Effects in Water at the Triple Point: Using Theory as a Link Between Experiments
