Ultrahigh Energy Cosmic Rays

Cosmogenic neutrinos1 are expected from ultrahigh energy cosmic rays undergoing the GZK process2,3 and anticipated to be observed by detection of the air showers from the decays of tau leptons. We use CORSIKA simulated shower structure to Calculate the coherent geosynchrotron radio emissions of the tau decay showers above 1017 eV. We present the pattern and spectrum of the radio waves and discuss their detections by radio antennae.

Primary Cosmic Rays

The muon charge ratio of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays may provide information to detect the composition of the primary cosmic rays. We propose to extract the charge information of high energy muons in very inclined extensive air showers by analyzing their relative lateral positions in the shower transverse plane.

The One

Regarding ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) as a probe and extra dimensions as a possible ingredient of the fantastic ultrahigh- energy world, we discuss possible interplay between them. On the one hand small extra dimensions and KK bursts present a feasible way to the origin of UHECRs. On the other hand large extra dimensions may change various interactions between particles at ultrahigh energies and therefore impact on air showers created by UHECRs. Conversely, UHECR data may tell us secrets veiled in extra dimensions.
