Mountaintop Gamma Ray Observations of Three Terrestrial Gamma‐Ray Flashes at the Säntis Tower, Switzerland With Coincident Radio Waveforms
Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga, Amirhossein Mostajabi
We report on the mountain top observation of three terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) that occurred during the summer storm season of 2021. To our knowledge, these are the first TGFs observed in a mountaintop environment and the first published European ...
2024Attaining the PeV frontier of the cosmic ray spectrum in space with HERD
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 ...
E D P SCIENCES2023Hadronic 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 ...
College Pk2023DARKFLUX: A new tool to analyze indirect-detection spectra of next-generation dark matter models
We present DARKFLUX, a software tool designed to analyze indirect-detection signatures for next-generation models of dark matter (DM) with multiple annihilation channels. Version 1.0 of this tool accepts user-generated models with 2 -> 2 tree-level dark ma ...
ELSEVIER2022Signatures of anisotropic diffusion around PeVatrons in 100 TeV gamma-ray data
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 ...
2022Detectability of Large Correlation Length Inflationary Magnetic Field with Cherenkov Telescopes
Magnetic fields occupying the voids of the large scale structure may be a relic from the Early Universe originating from either Inflation or from cosmological phase transitions. We explore the possibility of identifying the inflationary origin of the void ...
2022Delayed gamma fraction determination in the zero power reactor CROCUS
Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Oskari Ville Pakari, Pavel Frajtag, Tom Mager
Gamma rays are an inextricable part of a nuclear reactor's radiation field, and as such require characterization for dose rate estimations required for the radiation protection of personnel, material choices, and the design of nuclear facilities. Most comm ...
