The fluxes of neutrino induced muons at different zenith angles have been calculated using the high energy diffused neutrino spectra emitted from blazars. We have used the standard formulation developed by Gaisser based on charge-current interactions in rock and the QED-based energy loss formulation to estimate the spectra of neutrino induced muons. The energy spectra of neutrino flux generated from blazars has been taken from the model calculations of Protheroe. The latest charge-current and total interaction cross-sections at ultrahigh energies from Kwiecinski et al. have been used to find the probability of muon generation from neutrinos and the loss of neutrinos during propagation through the Earth. We find that our derived horizontal neutrino induced muon energy spectra expected from blazar model of Protheroe is comparable with the upper limits as predicted by SOUDAN 2 experiment.

AbstractSelf-modulated wakefield acceleration was investigated at densities down to ~4 × 1018 cm−3 by propagating the 50 TW 300 fs LULI laser in helium gas jets at lengths up to 1 cm. Long interaction lengths were achieved by closer matching of the initial focal spot size to the matched spot size for these densities. Electrons with energies extending to 180 MeV were observed in broad energy spectra which show some evidence for non-Maxwellian features at high energy. Two-dimensional PIC simulations indicate that the intial laser pulse breaks up into small pulselets that are eventually compressed and focused inside the first few plasma periods, leading to a ‘bubble-like’ acceleration of electron bunches.

Recent experiments have extended the knowledge of the flux and energy spectra of individual cosmic-ray components to much higher energies than had previously been accessible. Both electron and nuclear components show a behaviour at high energy which is unexpected, and which carries information regarding the sources and the propagation of particles between sources and observer. Electromagnetic interactions which are suffered by the electrons in interstellar space should steepen their spectrum, a steepening that would reveal the average lifetime a cosmic-ray particle spends in the galaxy. Measurements up to 1000 GeV show no such steepening. It was discovered that the composition of the nuclear species which is now measured up to 100 GeV/nucleon changes with energy. This change indicates traversal of less interstellar matter by the high energy particles than by those of lower energy. We discuss the experimental evidence and its implication.

AbstractWe consider inelastic backscattering of electrons with initial energy of tens and hundreds of keV by plane-parallel homogeneous and sandwiched targets. Basing on the invariance principle, we find expressions that describe the dynamics of the changes in the energy spectra of electrons reflected into a given solid angle that occur with increase of the thickness of films of different materials on substrates of finite and infinite thickness. We substantiate a procedure of linearizing the equations for the reflection function obtained by the method of invariant imbedding. We obtain an analytical solution of linearized equations in the form of a series in Legendre polynomials. A comparison with experimental data shows that the theory developed gives an adequate description of the process of electron backscattering.

Measurements have been made on the energy and angular distributions of the charged particles from disintegration ‘stars’ produced in the silver and bromine nuclei of photographic emulsions exposed to cosmic radiation. The observations extended over a wide range of excitation energies (100 to 700 MeV). The energy spectra and angular distributions of the protons can be explained in all cases by simple evaporation theory. This energy distribution shows also a high-energy tail consisting of direct knock-on protons and slow mesons. At high excitation energies the α-particles exhibit collimation effects which are probably due to localized ‘boiling’ or a form of fission.
