用cosmic ray数据研究甚高能量下的π介子相互作用

Constraining pion interactions at very high energies by cosmic ray data

Sergey Ostapchenko, Marcus Bleicher

摘要:

我们表明,目前的不确定性模型预测的宇宙射线引起的广泛的空气阵雨的平均最大深度的很大一部分是非常高的能量介子-空气碰撞。我们的分析表明,在空气簇射的μ介子生产剖面的最大值的位置是强烈敏感的这种相互作用的属性。因此,测量的最大μ介子生产深度的宇宙射线实验提供了一个独特的机会,以限制在非常高的能量的π介子-空气相互作用的治疗,从而减少模型相关的不确定性的簇射最大深度。

英文摘要:

We demonstrate that a substantial part of the present uncertainties in model predictions for the average maximum depth of cosmic ray-induced extensive air showers is related to very high energy pion-air collisions. Our analysis shows that the position of the maximum of the muon production profile in air showers is strongly sensitive to the properties of such interactions. Therefore, the measurements of the maximal muon production depth by cosmic ray experiments provide a unique opportunity to constrain the treatment of pion-air interactions at very high energies and to reduce thereby model-related uncertainties for the shower maximum depth.
