Sources of sub - GZK cosmic rays

We analyze the existing evidence that BL Lacertae objects (BL Lacs) are sources of the highest-energy cosmic rays. We argue that three independent signatures observed in the real data — (1) improvement of correlations with corrections of trajectories for the Galactic magnetic field; (2) connection between γ-ray and UHECR emissions; (3) non-uniform distribution of correlating rays over the sky —...

TeV String Theories, Mini Black Holes and Trans-GZK Cosmic Rays

The existence of cosmic rays transcending the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin (GZK) cutoff appear to be a fact of life. While there is still some controversy regarding the observational data, it appears that opinions converge toward acknowledging the existence of trans-GZK events. Clearly, the issue will be satisfactorily clarified once future detectors, such as OWL, EUSO, the Pierre Auger Observatory,...

Gravi - Burst : Super - GZK Cosmic Rays from Localized Gravity ∗

The flux of cosmic rays beyond the GZK cutoff (∼ 10 20 eV) may be explained through their production by ultra high energy cosmic neutrinos, annihilating on the relic neutrino background, in the vicinity of our galaxy. This process is mediated through the production of a Z boson at resonance, and is generally known as the Z-Burst mechanism. We show that a similar mechanism can also contribute to...

The Eddington Limit in Cosmic Rays: an Explanation for the Observed Faintness of Starbursting Galaxies

We show that the luminosity of a star forming galaxy is capped by the production and subsequent expulsion of cosmic rays from its interstellar medium. By defining an Eddington luminosity in cosmic rays, we show that the star formation rate of a given galaxy is limited by its mass content and the cosmic ray mean free path. When the cosmic ray luminosity and pressure reaches a critical value as a...
