Cover Story: This paper delves into a pioneering approach in the study of Cosmic Rays (CRs), unveiling a new technique capable of detecting isotopes at the formidable energy levels of up to 100 GeV/nucleon. By utilizing Coulomb scattering in conjunction with sophisticated velocity measurements, this innovative method sidesteps the traditional reliance on magnetic spectrometers. Primarily focusing on key isotopes such as deuterium (D) and protons (p), it employs the GEANT4 simulation package to assess its effectiveness. Future instruments are set to exploit this technique, potentially transforming our understanding of galactic propagation and reshaping existing models of the cosmic environment. View this paper

Can Black Holes or Other Relativistic Space Objects Be a Source of Dark Energy?

Serge Parnovsky

Particles2024, 7(2), 297-308;https://doi.org/10.3390/particles7020018

29 March 2024

We consider the hypothesis that the sources of dark energy (DE) could be black holes (BHs) or more exotic objects, such as naked singularities or gravastars. We propose a definition of the presence of DE in the Universe and a criterion for what can b...

Cosmological Mass of the Photon Related to Stueckelberg and Higgs Mechanisms

Lorenzo Gallerani Resca

Particles2024, 7(2), 289-296;https://doi.org/10.3390/particles7020017

29 March 2024

I consider the electro-weak (EW) masses and interactions generated by photons using vacuum expectation values of Stueckelberg and Higgs fields. I provide a prescription to relate their parametric values to a cosmological range derived from the fundam...
