It is widely accepted that cosmic rays (CRs) up to at least PeV energies are Galactic in origin. Accelerated particles are injected into the interstellar medium where they propagate to the farthest reaches of the Milky Way, including a…

In the past few decades, large universal structures have been found that challenge the homogeneity and isotropy expected in standard cosmological models. This study examines burst clustering in both galactic hemispheres using a recently…
