First measurement of the nuclear-recoil ionization yield in silicon at 100 eV

Kavli Affiliate: D. B. Macfarlane | First 5 Authors: M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib, D. Alonso, D. W. P. Amaral, P. An | Summary: We measured the nuclear–recoil ionization yield in silicon with a cryogenic phonon-sensitive gram-scale detector. Neutrons from a mono-energetic beam scatter off of the silicon nuclei at angles corresponding to energy depositions […]

Ultra High Energy Cosmic Ray Source Models: Successes, Challenges and General Predictions

Kavli Affiliate: Roger Blandford | First 5 Authors: Noemie Globus, Roger Blandford, , , | Summary: Understanding the acceleration of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays is one of the great challenges of contemporary astrophysics. In this short review, we summarize the general observational constraints on their composition, spectrum and isotropy which indicate that nuclei heavier […]
