Physics colloquium-“sub-atomic particle window to the ultra-high-energy universe”
CoorsTek Center for Applied Science and Engineering 1523 Illinois St., Golden, CO, United StatesEric Mayotte Colorado School of Mines, Physics Department Abstract: Ultra-High-Energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are the most energetic objects yet observed, and can have individual particle energies of 1020 eV. The field of physics which studies them is called astroparticle physics and it sits at the intersection of high-energy particle physics and multi-messenger astrophysics. The primary goals for […]
