The Cosmic X-ray background carries the information of cosmic accretion onto super-massive black holes. The intensity at its peak can be used to constrain the integrated space density of highly obscured AGNs. Determining the shape and intensity of the Cosmic X-ray background radiation represents, however, a first step towards the understanding of the population of Comptonthick AGNs. The study o...

New data from the cosmic ray experiment on the Voyager spacecraft confirms and extends earlier data from a similar experiment on the ISEE-3 spacecraft which indicates the possibility of the decay of certain K-capture isotopes during the interstellar propagation of galactic cosmic rays. These cosmic ray measurements, along with the cross section measurements, indicate that ∼ 25% of the K-capture...

The cosmic ray all-particle spectrum has a small steepening of its spectral slope, or ‘knee’, near 10 eV. Changes in the nuclear composition of cosmic rays may be associated with the knee and provide clues concerning the origin of the spectral change. An ultra-long duration balloon experiment, Cosmic Ray Energetics and Mass (CREAM), is being constructed to measure cosmic ray elemental spectra a...

Measurements of cosmic rays by experiments such as ATIC, CREAM, and PAMELA indicate a hardening of the cosmic-ray energy spectrum at TeV energies. In our recent work (Thoudam & Hörandel 2012a), we showed that the hardening can be due to the effect of nearby supernova remnants. We showed it for the case of proton and helium. In this paper, we present an improved and detailed version of our previ...

Abstract: The long-duration balloon flights of TRACER provide new measurements of the intensities and energy spectra of the arriving cosmic-ray nuclei with 5 ≤ Z ≤ 26 at high energies. In order to determine the particle composition and energy spectra at the cosmic-ray sources, changes occurring during the interstellar propagation of cosmic rays must be known. We use a simple propagation model w...

One of the most striking astrophysical phenomena today is the existence of cosmic ray particles with energies in excess of 10 20 eV. While their presence has been confirmed by a number of experiments, it is not clear where and how these particles are accelerated to these energies and how they travel astronomical distances without substantial energy loss. We are entering an exciting new era in c...

We describe the results of a hybrid matrix{Monte Carlo calculation of cascading of UHE cosmic rays and-rays through the cosmic background radiation elds over cosmological distances. We calculate the-ray and neutrino emission that results from the cascade, as well as the eeect of cascading on the primary spectrum. We discuss the results for various cosmic ray injection spectra and primary specie...

The investigation of very high energy cosmic rays and their interactions are inherently connected subjects of astroparticle physics. On one hand the understanding of cosmic ray interactions is needed to study the flux, acceleration and propagation of cosmic rays. For example, the high energy cosmic ray flux can only be measured by linking secondary particle cascades observed in detectors or the...
