The phase of inflationary expansion in the early Universe produces superheavy relics in a mass window between 1012 and 1014 GeV. Decay or annihilation of these superheavy relics an explain the observed ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays beyond the Greisen–Zatsepin–Kuzmin cutoff. We emphasize that the pattern of cosmic-ray arrival directions seen by the Pierre Auger observatory will decide between the different proposals for the origin of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays.PACS Nos.: 98.70.Sa, 98.70.–f, 95.35.+d, 14.80.–j

AbstractIt has long been recognized that magnetic fields play an important role in many astrophysical environments, yet the strength and structure of magnetic fields beyond our solar system have been at best only qualitatively constrained. The Galactic magnetic field in particular is crucial for modeling the transport of Galactic CRs, for calculating the background to dark matter and CMB-cosmology studies, and for determining the sources of UHECRs. This report gives a brief overview of recent major advances in our understanding of the Galactic magnetic field (GMF) and its lensing of Galactic and ultrahigh energy cosmic rays.
