AbstractWith the exceptions of Synchrotron Radiation sources, beams of accelerated particles are generally designed to interact either with one another (in the case of colliders) or with a specific target (for the operation of Fixed Target experiments, the production of secondary beams and for medical applications). However, in addition to the desired interactions there are unwanted interactions of the high energy particles which can produce undesirable side effects. These interactions can arise from the unavoidable presence of residual gas in the accelerator vacuum chamber, or from the impact of particles lost from the beam on aperture limits around the accelerator, as well as the final beam dump. The wanted collisions of the beams in a collider to produce potentially interesting High Energy Physics events also reduces the density of the circulating beam and can produce high fluxes of secondary particles.

The model HDPM of CORSIKA has been updated and developed on the base of the recent measurements by ALICE, CMS, TOTEM, LHCb, LHCf... The new model, GHOST, involving a four-source production reproduces correctly the pseudo-rapidity distributions of charged secondaries and has been tested with the data in the mid and forward rapidity region, especially in the complex case of TOTEM, and also with the recent measurements of CMS, up to $ \sqrt s = 13\,{\rm{TeV}} $ (9.0 1016 eV in laboratory system). Special calculations have been devoted to the semi-inclusive data playing an important role in the cosmic ray simulation (fluctuations in earliest collisions, individual cascades measured at high altitude with high energy emulsion chambers). Taking into account the violation of KNO scaling, the negative binomial distribution (NegBin-expressed in terms of scaled elements) $ z = {n \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {n {\bar {n}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\bar {n}}} $ (n is the number of charged secondaries) has been used pointing out a possible asymptotic behaviour of total charged multiplicities at primary energies exceeding 40 TeV (8.5 1017 eV). Thus, larger reduction of the energies devoted to the leading cluster and very large multiplicity of secondary particles could suggest for EAS generated by primary protons a larger production of muons and a shower maximum at higher altitude.

The physics of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays will be reviewed, discussing the latest experimental results and theoretical models aiming at explaining the observations in terms of spectra, mass composition and possible sources. It will be also discussed the emission of secondary particles such as neutrinos and gamma rays produced by the interaction of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays with astrophysical photon backgrounds. The content of the present proceeding paper is mainly based on the review papers [1, 2].
