In cluster-impact fusion, the width of the proton energy spectrum gives information about the temperature of the fusing deuterons, and its shape reflects the dimensionality of their velocity distribution. The observed symmetrical spectrum implies a one-dimensional distribution, whereas a three-dimensional distribution would result in a skewed spectrum. One dimensionality implies either extremely rapid thermalization in the beam direction, or the possibility of beam ion fusion.

If the most energetic cosmic rays that have been detected are of extragalactic origin, and their sources were strong radio emitters, the radio-astronomical evidence suggests that the output from such sources must have been very much greater in the past than at present, varying roughly as t−3 over a long period. In this case, the importance of interactions between the universal flux of microwaves and intergalactic cosmic-ray protons and nuclei above 1015 eV is greatly increased, because of "red shifts" in the energies of the nuclei and the microwaves, and changes in density. The probable result is shown to be a steepening in the proton energy spectrum from a slope of –1.5 to –2.2 over the range 1016 to 1018 eV, as is observed, if the energy spectrum at production is always simply E−1.5.This could mean that the "ankle" in the observed spectrum near 3 × 1018 eV is related to the interaction mentioned, and is not a transition from galactic to extragalactic rays.Difficulties remain in accounting for the spectrum above 3 × 1019 eV.

The DAMPE (DArk Matter Particle Explorer) experiment, in orbit since December 17th 2015, is a space mission whose main purpose is the detection of cosmic electrons and photons up to energies of 10 TeV, in order to identify possible evidence of Dark Matter in their spectra. Furthermore it aims to measure the spectra and the elemental composition of the galactic cosmic rays nuclei up to the energy of hundreds of TeV. The proton analysis and the flux with kinetic energy ranging from 50 GeV up to 100 TeV, at the end of two years of data taking, will be presented and discussed.

AbstractA method to shape the neutron energy spectrum at low-energy accelerators is proposed by modification of the initial proton energy distribution. A first application to the superconductive RFQ of the SPES project at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro is investigated for the production of a Maxwell–Boltzmann neutron spectrum at kT = 30 keV via the 7Li(p, n)7Be reaction. Concept, solutions and calculations for a setup consisting of a proton energy shaper and a lithium target are presented. It is found that a power dentisity of 3 kW cm−2 could be sustained by the lithium target and a forward-directed neutron flux higher than 1010 s−1 at the sample position could be obtained. In the framework of the SPES project the construction of a LEgnaro NeutrOn Source (LENOS) for Astrophysics and for validation of integral nuclear data is proposed, suited for activation studies on stable and unstable isotopes.
