The clustering of ultrahigh energy (>10^{20} eV) cosmic rays (UHECR) suggests that they might be emitted by compact sources. Statistical analysis (Dubovsky et al., 2000) estimated the source density. We extend their analysis to give also…
The deflection of extragalactic ultra-high energy protons (E > 4E19 eV) travelling to our galaxy is studied assuming that visible matter traces both, the sources of the particles and the intergalactic magnetic field. The reversal scale and…

Since ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are electrically charged particles, they are deflected by magnetic fields. Those magnetic fields can act as lenses, altering their trajectories and (de)magnifying their apparent source images.…
