  1. 0. Results from IceCube
    Albrecht Karle (University of Wisconsin-Madison)
    26/08/2013, 08:30
    IceCube has been taken more than 3 years of data in its almost-full (79 strings)and full 86 string configuration. This talk will discuss recent results from the IceCube neutrino observatory with focus on a data set that shows first evidence for a population of very high energy neutrinos (100+ TeV) that cannot easily be explained by atmospheric neutrino background and may represent the first...

  2. 1. Latest news on ANTARES and KM3NeT Observatories
    Alexandre Creusot (APC, France)
    26/08/2013, 09:00
    The ANTARES detector, located 40 km off the French coast, is the largest deep-sea neutrino telescope in the Northern Hemisphere with an instrumented volume of more than 0.01 cubic kilometers. The KM3NeT telescope has been designed to be the next generation of deep-sea telescope with an instrumented volume several hundred times larger. Both of them consist of an array of optical modules...

  3. 4. Radio detection of cosmic rays with LOFAR
    Stijn Buitink
    26/08/2013, 09:30
    LOFAR is a multipurpose radio telescope which can be used for radio detection of cosmic rays while running astronomical observations at the same time. The core of LOFAR contains 2300 antennas within an area of four square kilometer. This high density makes it an ideal location for a detailed study of the radio signal of extensive air showers in the energy range 10$^{16}$ - 10$^{18}$ eV. We...

  7. 6. Observations of Fermi bubbles and Evidence for Past Activities in the Galactic Center
    Meng Su (MIT)
    26/08/2013, 12:00
    Data from the Fermi-LAT revealed two large gamma-ray bubbles, extending 50 degrees above and below the Galactic center, with a width of about 40 degrees in longitude. I will show multi-wavelength studies of this so-called Fermi bubble structure including radio, microwave, and X-ray. Furthermore, we recently found evidence for large-scale collimated jet-like structure from Fermi-LAT data,...

  9. 9. Results from the Telesope Array Experiment
    Charles Jui
    27/08/2013, 09:00
    The Telescope Array (TA) is the largest ultrahigh energy cosmic ray detector in the northern hemisphere. The experiment consists of three fluorescence stations viewing the air space over a surface array of 503 scintillation counters deployed over 700 square kilometers. TA has been in operation since 2008. The results from TA will be presented, along with a brief report on the progress of the...

  10. 10. What can we learn about the ultra-high energy cosmic-ray origin from the present results by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory?
    Shigeru Yoshida (Chiba University)

  11. 11. Radio Askaryan Neutrino Telescopes
    Amy CONNOLLY
    27/08/2013, 10:00
    There are strong motivations for a detectable flux of ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic neutrinos above 10$^{17-18}$~eV both from cosmic ray interactions with cosmic microwave background photons and directly from UHE sources. The radio Cerenkov technique is the most promising technique for instrumenting a detection volume large enough to detect the low expected fluxes, and so far all experiments...

    John Mitchell (NASA)
    27/08/2013, 12:00
    The SuperTIGER (Super Trans-Iron Galactic Element Recorder) long-duration balloon instrument was developed by Washington University in St. Louis, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Caltech, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and the University of Minnesota to measure the abundances of galactic cosmic ray elements from 26Fe to 40Zr with high statistics and single element resolution, and to extend...

    The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory, under construction in Central Mexico at an altitude of 4,100m, will consist of 300 large light-tight water tanks instrumented with photomultiplier tubes. Ground level particles produced by gamma rays and cosmic rays that collide with the upper atmosphere are detected with these tanks. HAWC differentiates gamma-ray and cosmic-ray primaries...
