Chance Probability

We examine the correlation between compact radio quasars (redshifts in the range z=0.3–2.2) and the arrival direction of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays forming clusters. Our Monte Carlo simulation reveals a statistically significant correlation on the AGASA sample: the chance probability of this effect being less than 1%. The implications of this result on the origin of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays are discussed.

Diversity Of Science

AbstractSolving the century-old puzzle of how and where cosmic rays are accelerated mostly drives the design of high-energy neutrino telescopes. It calls, along with a diversity of science goals reaching particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology, for the construction of a kilometer-scale neutrino detector. This led to the IceCube concept to transform a kilometer cube of transparent Antarctic Ice, one mile below the South Pole, into a neutrino telescope.

Detector Simulation

This paper analyzes the data got in two Monte Carlo simulations, namely, extensive air shower simulation and detector simulation. Then, based on the data from experimental arrays, some physical problems have been analyzed and illustrated. Those problems include the distribution of energy spectrum of secondary particles, the distribution of zenith angle, of azimuths, of background noises, and that of strip pattern, as well as the atmospheric absorption.

Full Operation

The origin of highest energy cosmic rays remains unresolved. High-energy neutrinos may provide the clues to fundamental phenomena such as the origin of cosmic rays or dark matter in the Universe. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a km scale neutrino detector, has come into full operation in 2011. At the highest energy levels, prototypes of a new experiment, the Askaryan Radio Array, have been deployed and are being tested. We report on the status, first results and prospects of the experimental neutrino searches under way and planned at the South Pole.
