Interaction mean free paths of relativistic secondary particles emitted from interactions of heavy primary cosmic-ray nuclei in emulsions were measured. The results show that among the Be, Li, He, and singly charged secondary nuclei there are particles present which interact with a cross section several times higher than the expected geometrical value. The stars produced by these particles have the characteristics of ordinary nuclear interactions. There appears to be no interpretation of these observations in terms of any known particle phenomena.

In this work, the interactions of 7Li nuclei with emulsion at 3 A GeV/c were studied. Multiplicity of the charged secondary particles as well as the charge of the outgoing projectile fragments were measured, while correlations among them are discussed. The values of the total charge of the noninteracting projectile nucleons and the average number of interacting projectile nucleons are estimated. The dependence of the secondary particles on the number of heavily-ionized tracks is analyzed. The results show that interactions of 7Li nuclei with emulsion nuclei exhibit a number of regularities, which had been noted in experiments with lighter nuclei. The absorption of relativistic particles, while increasing the degree of target destruction, is observed. The average multiplicities of the secondary charged particles depend on the impact parameter, as their values increase, while decreasing the impact parameter. The number of secondary charged particles in the heavy-ion interactions depends on the degree of disintegration of the target nuclei. This dependence is not observed in the case of the interaction of hadron with emulsion. The experimental data of the interaction of 7Li are systematically compared with the other interactions at different energies. The results agree with the corresponding results at nearly the same energy.

In this contribution, we describe an investigation of the fractal nature of non-statistical fluctuations in the density distribution of singly charged secondary particles produced in 32 S - Ag / Br interactions in emulsion target at incident energy of 200A GeV. The experimental results have been compared with those obtained from an event sample simulated by the Lund Monte Carlo code FRITIOF. Besides obtaining the fractal dimensions and a smooth multifractal spectrum, show that the results can be used to determine universal parameters such as the Levy index, and the multifractal specific heat.

AbstractNeutrino telescopes can observe neutrino interactions starting at GeV energies by sampling a small fraction of the Cherenkov radiation produced by charged secondary particles. These experiments instrument volumes massive enough to collect substantial samples of neutrinos up to the TeV scale as well as small samples at the PeV scale. This unique ability of neutrino telescopes has been exploited to study the properties of neutrino interactions across energies that cannot be accessed with man-made beams. Here, we present the methods and results obtained by IceCube, the most mature neutrino telescope in operation, and offer a glimpse of what the future holds in this field.

A systematic study and statistically significant results of the different types of correlations, for angles, rapidity and rapidity intervals, between various charged secondary particles and projectile fragments produced in the inelastic interactions of 24 Mg with emulsion at 4.5 A GeV/c have been investigated. All types of particles are found to be emitted asymmetrically in the azimuthal plane. This asymmetry increases with decreasing the impact parameter. The two-particle correlation function is found to be positive except in the extreme projectile fragmentation region. It has also been observed that the particles belonging to the different kinematical regions of the nucleus-nucleus interactions (intergroup correlation) have a tendency to be emitted from opposite sides of the azimuthal plane. The azimuthal angle correlations for pairs of charged secondary particles are also studied.

The KM3NeT detectors are large three-dimensional arrays of several thousands digital optical modules under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. The basic detection element of the neutrino telescope is the digital optical module containing 31 three-inch photomultiplier tubes. Each detection unit, composed of 18 digital optical modules, is a mechanical structure anchored to the sea floor, held vertical by a submerged buoy for the detection of Cherenkov light emitted by charged secondary particles emerging from neutrino interactions. Detector calibration, i.e. timing, positioning and sea-water properties, is overviewed in this talk and discussed in detail in this conference.
