Cosmic Neutrinos from the Sources of Galactic and Extragalactic Cosmic Rays
Although kilometer-scale neutrino detectors such as IceCube are discovery instruments, their conceptual design is very much anchored to the observational fact that Nature produces protons and photons with energies in excess of 1020 eV and 1013 eV, respectively. The puzzle of where and how Nature accelerates the highest energy cosmic particles is unresolved almost a century after their discovery...
متن کاملExtragalactic Absorption of High Energy Gamma-Rays
The pair-production absorption of high-energy -rays by intergalactic low-energy photons is expected to produce a high-energy cuto in the spectra of sources which is a sensitive function of redshift. We rst discuss the expected absorption coe cient as a function of energy and redshift derived by Stecker and De Jager by making use of a new empirically based calculation of the spectral energy dist...
متن کاملCosmic Rays and High-Energy Neutrinos from Gamma-Ray Bursts
Several lines of evidence point to a relationship between gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and the high mass stars that explode as supernovae. Arguments that GRB sources accelerate cosmic rays (CRs) are summarized. High-energy neutrino detection from individual GRBs would mean that they are hadronically dominated, that is, that the amount of energy deposited in the form of nonthermal hadrons in GRB blas...
متن کاملHigh-Energy Cosmic Rays and Neutrinos from Gamma-Ray Bursts
— A complete model for the origin of high-energy ( > ∼ 10 14 eV) cosmic rays from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and implications of this hypothesis are described. Detection of high-energy neutrinos from GRBs provide an unambiguous test of the model. Evidence for cosmic-ray acceleration in GRBs is suggested by the detection of anomalous γ-ray components such as that observed from GRB 941017. Neutron β...
متن کاملUltra-high energy cosmic rays, cascade γ-rays, and high-energy neutrinos from gamma-ray bursts
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are sources of energetic, highly variable fluxes of γ rays, which demonstrates that they are powerful particle accelerators. Besides relativistic electrons, GRBs should also accelerate high-energy hadrons, some of which could escape cooling to produce ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). Acceleration of high-energy hadrons in GRB blast waves will be established if hig...
