because LHAASO has that extreme strong sensitivity that allows us not only to see where cosmic rays originate from, but also to observe the behavior of cosmic ray propagation. In time,
Most cosmic rays originate from within our own galaxy, where they are belched out by supernovae, or launched like a slingshot from the steep gravity well of a black hole. In fact, the presence of certain power levels of cosmic rays is evidence that black holes really exist. One of the ...
Cao said the finding is "simply unimaginable" without LHASSO, which has an extremely strong sensitivity that allows it to see where cosmic rays originate from and observe the behavior of cosmic ray propagation. The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory in Daocheng County, southwest...
Researchers know cosmic rays originate from the multitude of stars in theMilky Way, including our sun, and other galaxies. The difficulty is tracing the particles to specific sources, because the turbulence of interstellar gas,plasma, and dust causes them to scatter and rescatter in different dire...
Despite their ubiquity, cosmic rays still present scientific mysteries. While slow-energy cosmic rays that strikeEarthare known to originate from thesun, others with higher energies stream into thesolar systemfrom deepspace. The origins of these extrasolar cosmic rays are lesser known, with suspect ...
As 2012 approaches, and with it the centenary of Victor Hess's famous discovery, it really is time that we found out where cosmic rays originate. Gamma-ray astronomy has shown that most of the particles come from the Galaxy, but even this discovery was 63 years in coming (Dodds etal. 19...
The bulk of the observations suggests that cosmic rays originate in unevolved star surface material. Most cosmic rays should be stellar energetic particles first accelerated by flares out of the Coronae of F to M stars, that got later on reaccelerated to high energy by strong interstellar shock...
Cosmic rays are one of the most intriguing and mysterious phenomena in the universe. These high-energy particles, which originate from outer space, constantly bombard the Earth's atmosphere, yet their origins and effects remain largely unknown. Scientists have been studying cosmic rays for decades,...
Chen said one popular hypothesis is that the high-energy neutrinos and gamma rays are potentially produced simultaneously when high-energy cosmic rays originate. "If we can detect the two particles together, we can determine the origin of the cosmic rays," said Chen. When passing through the wa...
