Description
High-energy cosmic rays are a significant aspect of the high-energy universe, but their origins and acceleration mechanisms are not fully understood. Neutrinos, generated through interactions of these cosmic rays, provide a unique means to study these energetic particles and their sources. This presentation focuses on how observations of neutrinos can inform our understanding of cosmic ray acceleration and propagation.
We will review the relationship between cosmic rays and neutrinos, including theoretical models that predict neutrino fluxes resulting from cosmic ray interactions in various astrophysical environments. Recent data from neutrino observatories will be discussed, along with analyses showing how these observations contribute to our understanding of cosmic ray sources and acceleration mechanisms. Additionally, the presentation will explore the potential for future research to address outstanding questions in cosmic ray physics.
By examining the interplay between neutrinos and cosmic rays, we aim to enhance our knowledge of high-energy astrophysical processes and improve our understanding of the most energetic particles in the universe.
