Two extreme events in the universe, fast radio bursts (FRBs) and cosmic rays (CRs), could be correlated, where FRBs with extreme field strength near their sources may contribute to CRs. This study investigates localized particle…
Cosmic rays have been observed up to energies $10^8$ times larger than those of the best particle accelerators. Studies of astrophysical particles (hadrons, neutrinos and photons) at their highest observed energies have implications for…
We derive an upper limit to the energy of nuclei accelerated via the Fermi mechanism in any relativistic shockwave, driven by any astrophysical engine. This bound is accessible to current and upcoming ultra-high energy neutrino experiments.…
The recently launched satellite, Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, is expected to find out if cosmic-ray (CR) protons are generated from supernova remnants (SNRs), especially RX J1713.7-3946, by observing the GeV-to-TeV gamma-rays. The GeV…
We present a model of ultra-high-energy cosmic ray (UHECR) production in the shock-accelerated fireball of a gamma-ray burst. In addition to the standard UHECR origin from neutron escape and decay into protons, our model considers direct…
The detection of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos and ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) provides a new way to explore sources of cosmic rays. One of the highest energy neutrino events detected by IceCube, tagged as IC35, is close to…
Precise measurements of the boron-to-carbon and boron-to-oxygen ratios by DAMPE show clear hardenings around $100$ GeV/n, which provide important implications on the production, propagation, and interaction of Galactic cosmic rays. In this…
The generic acceleration model for ultra high energy cosmic rays, which has been introduced in {\tt 1006.5708 [astro-ph.HE]}, suggests various types of electromagnetic interactions between cosmic charged particles and the different types of…
We consider a sample of 107 Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) for which early UV emission was measured by Swift, and extrapolate the photon intensity to lower energies. Protons accelerated in the GRB jet may interact with such photons to produce…
The hypernovae (HNe) associated with Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) may have a fairly steep energy-velocity distribution, i.e., $E(\geq \beta)\propto \beta^{-q}$ for $q<2$ and $\beta\geq \beta_o$, where $\beta$ is the velocity of the material and…
Identifying the accelerators of Galactic cosmic ray protons (CRs) with energies up to a few PeV ($10^{15}$ eV) remains a theoretical and observational challenge. Supernova remnants (SNRs) represent strong candidates, as they provide…
A correlation between the highest energy Cosmic Rays (above ~ EeV) and the distribution of active galactic nuclei (AGN) gives rise to a prediction of neutrino production in the same sources. In this paper, we present a detailed AGN model,…
Cosmic ray collisions at high center of mass energy could enable graviton and black hole production as expected in theories of low-scale quantum gravity, such as extra-dimensions, many species, or some versions of string theory. Here we…
The energetics of electromagnetic acceleration of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) is constrained both by confinement of a particle within an acceleration site and by radiative energy losses of the particle in the confining magnetic…
We present a study of the expectations for very-high-energy (VHE) to ultra-high-energy (UHE) gamma-ray and neutrino emission from interacting cosmic rays in our Galaxy as well as a comparison to the latest results for the Galactic UHE…
Neutrino telescope IceCube has recently discovered astrophysical neutrinos with energies in the TeV-PeV range. We use the data of Fermi gamma-ray telescope to demonstrate that the neutrino signal has significant contribution from the Milky…
Current emission models of GeV-PeV neutrinos from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) predict a neutrino flux with $\ll 1$ detected neutrinos per GRB with kilometer-scale neutrino observatories. The detection of this flux will require the stacking of…
We derive upper limits on the ratio $f_{GRB/CCSN}(z) \equiv R_{GRB}(z)/R_{CCSN}(z) \equiv f_{GRB/CCSN}(0)(1+z)^\alpha$, the ratio of the rate, $R_{GRB}$, of long-duration Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) to the rate, $R_{CCSN}$, of core-collapse…
The observed flux of ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic rays (CRs) guarantees the presence of high-energy cosmogenic neutrinos that are produced via photo-hadronic interactions of CRs propagating through intergalactic space. This flux of…
We give a brief review of the origin and acceleration of cosmic rays (CRs), emphasizing the production of CRs at different stages of supernova evolution by the first-order Fermi shock acceleration mechanism. We suggest that supernovae with…
