Transport of dust across the Solar System: Constraints on the spatial origin of individual micrometeorites from cosmic-ray exposure

Reto Georg Trappitsch

The origin of micrometeorites (MMs) from asteroids and comets is well-established, but the relative contribution from these two classes remains poorly resolved. Likewise, determining the precise origin of individual MMs is an open challenge. Here, cosmic-r ...

A deep learning method for the trajectory reconstruction of cosmic rays with the DAMPE mission

Chiara Perrina, Jennifer Maria Frieden

A deep learning method for the particle trajectory reconstruction with the DAMPE experiment is presented. The developed algorithms constitute the first fully machine-learned track reconstruction pipeline for space astroparticle missions. Significant perfor ...

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 ...

Hadronic nature of high-energy emission from the Galactic ridge

Andrii Neronov

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 ...

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

Javier García Hernández, Andrii Neronov, 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 ...

X-ray qualification of hydrogenated amorphous silicon sensors on flexible substrate

Nicolas Würsch, Luca Massimiliano Antognini, Sylvain Dunand

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) is a well known material for its radiation resistance and for the possibility of deposition on flexible substrates like Polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). Due to the p ...

Cosmological Fisher forecasts for next-generation spectroscopic surveys

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Jiaxi Yu

Next-generation spectroscopic surveys such as the MegaMapper, MUltiplexed Survey Telescope (MUST), MaunaKea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE), and WideField Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) are foreseen to increase the number of galaxy/quasar redshifts by an order ...

Measuring the electron energy distribution in tokamak plasmas from polarized electron cyclotron radiation

Arsène Stéphane Tema Biwole

In this doctoral thesis, a promising technique has been used for the measurement of non-thermal electrons in TCV. The technique employs a Vertical viewing ECE to more easily discriminate the radiation according to the energy of the electrons. Successful ...

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 ...

Limit on the intergalactic magnetic field from the ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray hotspot in the Perseus-Pisces region

Andrii Neronov, Oleg Kalashev

The Telescope Array Collaboration has reported an evidence for existence of a source of ultrahigh energy cosmic ray events in Perseus-Pisces supercluster. We show that the mere existence of such a source imposes an upper bound on the strength of intergalac ...

A model for the infrared-radio correlation of main sequence galaxies at gigahertz frequencies and its variation with redshift and stellar mass

Salim Bennouna, Mark Thomas Sargent

Context. The infrared-radio correlation (IRRC) of star-forming galaxies can be used to estimate their star formation rate (SFR) based on the radio continuum luminosity at MHz-GHz frequencies. For its practical application in future deep radio surveys, it i ...

Search for relativistic fractionally charged particles in space

Jian Wang, Zhirui Xu, Yi Zhang, Yi Wang, Siyuan Wang, Songmei Wu, Junqiu Liu, Johan Juul Chang, Cheng Zhao, Chiara Perrina, Jennifer Maria Frieden

More than a century after the performance of the oil drop experiment, the possible existence of fractionally charged particles (FCPs) still remains unsettled. The search for FCPs is crucial for some extensions of the Standard Model in particle physics. Mos ...

Observational signatures of galactic turbulent dynamos

Salim Bennouna, Abhijit Bhausaheb Bendre

We analyse the observational signatures of galactic magnetic fields that are self-consistently generated in magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the interstellar medium through turbulence driven by supernova (SN) explosions and differential rotation. In part ...

Status of the K-EUSO Orbital Detector of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays

Andrii Neronov

K-EUSO (KLYPVE-EUSO) is a planned orbital mission aimed at studying ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) by detecting fluorescence and Cherenkov light emitted by extensive air showers in the nocturnal atmosphere of Earth in the ultraviolet (UV) range. Th ...

Signatures of anisotropic diffusion around PeVatrons in 100 TeV gamma-ray data

Andrii Neronov

The Tibet AS gamma collaboration has reported a diffuse gamma-ray emission signal from the Galactic Plane. We consider the possibility that the diffuse emission from the outer Galactic Plane at the highest energies is produced by cosmic rays spreading from ...

Secondary Fast Breakdown in Narrow Bipolar Events

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

The physical mechanism of Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) has been studied for decades but it still holds many mysteries. Recent observations indicate that the fast breakdown discharges that produce NBEs sometimes contain a secondary fast breakdown that propa ...

Excitation of Alfven eigenmodes by fusion-born alpha-particles in D-He-3 plasmas on JET

Henri Weisen, Javier García Hernández

Alfven eigenmode (AE) instabilities driven by alpha-particles have been observed in D-He-3 fusion experiments on the Joint European Torus (JET) with the ITER-like wall. For the efficient generation of fusion alpha-particles from D-He-3 fusion reaction, the ...
