چکیده
An analysis of the influence of the Landau-Migdal-Pomeranchuck (LPM) effect on the development of air showers initiated by astroparticles, is presented. By means of computer simulations using algorithms that emulate Migdal’s theory, including also the so-called dielectric suppression, we study the behaviour of the relevant observables in the case of ultra high energy primaries. We find that the LPM effect can significantly modify the development of high energy electromagnetic showers.

Influence of the LPM effect and dielectric suppression on particle air showers
An analysis of the influence of the Landau-Migdal-Pomeranchuk (LPM) effect on the development of air showers initiated by astroparticles is presented. The theory of Migdal is studied and compared with other theoretical methods. By means of computer simulations and using algorithms that emulate Migdal’s theory, including also the so-called dielectric suppression, we study the behavior of the rel...

Received XXX At high energy, cosmic rays can only be studied by measuring the extensive air showers they produce in the atmosphere of the Earth. Although the main features of air showers can be understood within a simple model of successive interactions, detailed simulations and a realistic description of particle production are needed to calculate observables relevant to air shower experiments...

The nature and origin of ultra-high energy (UHE: referring to > 1019 eV) cosmic rays are great mysteries in modern astrophysics. The current theories for their explanation include the so-called ”top-down” decay scenarios whose main signature is a large ratio of UHE gamma rays to protons. Important step in determining the primary composition at ultra-high energies is the study of air shower deve...

By using the D0-brane cluster picture, we consider the Hawking radiation of Schwarzschild black hole (SBH) in large N Matrix model. We get the correct formula for the the Hawing evaporation rate. Our results give some evidence on the Lorentz invariance of the physics of Matrix model.
