Pierre Auger Observatory: Status Report

The Pierre Auger Observatory is a large international effort to provide measurements of extensive air showers (EAS) initiated in the upper atmosphere by cosmic rays with energies above 10 eV , the Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR’s). The explanations for the origin, acceleration processes and composition of the UHECR’s face theoretical and experimental difficulties, due to the extremely low...

Auger Observatory above 10 EeV

If clustering of the arrival directions of ultra high energy cosmic rays is discovered, this would provide important information about their origin, composition, and the galactic and extragalactic magnetic fields. We present here the analysis of the autocorrelation function of the data from the Pierre Auger Observatory as a function of the angular scale and the energy threshold. We compare our ...

Landes Highlights

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) coordinate networks of mRNAs, but predicting specific sites of interactions is complicated due to the very few bases of complementarity needed for regulation. A recent report by dr glen Borchert and colleagues presents a novel approach to miRNA target identification. Previously, the molecular events responsible for the genomic formation of many miRNA loci from transposable el...
