Past, present, and future of UHECR observations

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Great advances have been made in the study of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) in the past 2 decades. These include the discovery of the spectral cut-off near 5x10(19) eV and complex structure at lower energies, as well as increasingly precise information about the composition of cosmic rays as a function of energy. Important improvements in techniques, including extensive surface detector arrays and high resolution air fluorescence detectors, have been instrumental in facilitating this progress. We discuss the status of the field, including the open questions about the nature of spectral structure, systematic issues related to our understanding of composition, and emerging evidence for anisotropy at the highest energies. We review prospects for upgraded and future observatories including Telescope Array, Pierre Auger, and JEM-EUSO, as well as other space-based proposals, and discuss promising new technologies based on radio emission from extensive air showers produced by UHECR.
