I am a member since 2004 of the IceCube collaboration which discovered cosmic high energy neutrinos and identified some of their astrophysical sources.

Clustering of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays and their sources

Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology 67:10 (2003)

Abstract:

The sky distribution of cosmic rays with energies above the “GZK cutoff” holds important clues to their origin. The AGASA data, although consistent with isotropy overall, shows evidence for small-angle clustering, and it has been argued that such clusters are aligned with BL Lacertae objects, implicating these as the sources. It has also been suggested that such clusters can arise if the cosmic rays come from the decays of very massive relic particles in the galactic halo, due to the expected clumping of cold dark matter. We examine these claims and show that both are, in fact, unjustified. © 2003 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

This biennial Review summarizes much of Particle Physics. Using data from previous editions, plus 2205 new measurements from 667 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We also summarize searches for hypothetical particles such as Higgs bosons, heavy neutrinos, and supersymmetric particles. All the particle properties and search limits are listed in Summary Tables. We also give numerous tables, figures, formulae, and reviews of topics such as the Standard Model, particle detectors, probability, and statistics. This edition features expanded coverage of CP violation in B mesons and of neutrino oscillations. For the first time we cover searches for evidence of extra dimensions (both in the particle listings and in a new review). Another new review is on Grand Unified Theories. A booklet is available containing the Summary Tables and abbreviated versions of some of the other sections of this full Review. All tables, listings, and reviews (and errata) are also available on the Particle Data Group website: http://pdg.lbl.gov.
