Mini-EUSO is the first mission of the JEM-EUSO program on board the International Space Station. It was launched in 2019 and it is currently located in the Russian section (Zvezda module) of the station and viewing our planet from a nadir-facing UV-transparent window. The instrument is based on the concept of the original JEM-EUSO mission and consists of an optical system employing two Fresnel lenses and a focal surface composed of 36 Multi-Anode Photomultiplier tubes, 64 channels each, for a total of 2304 channels with single photon counting sensitivity and an overall field of view of 44° × 44°. Mini-EUSO can map the night-time Earth in the near UV range (predominantly between 290 nm and 430 nm), with a spatial resolution of about 6.3 km and different temporal resolutions of 2.5 µ, 320 µs and 41 ms. Mini-EUSO observations are extremely important to better assess the potential of a space-based detector in studying Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) such as K-EUSO and POEMMA. In this contribution we focus the attention on UV measurements, the observation of clouds and of certain categories of events that Mini-EUSO triggers with the shortest temporal resolution. We place them in the context of UHECR observations from space, namely the estimation of exposure and sensitivity to Extensive Air Showers.

The TA Low-energy Extension (TALE) experiment extends the energy range observed by the TA experiment to below 1016 eV. We aim to study the transition from galactic to extragalactic cosmic rays. The TALE detector is a hybrid apparatus composed of fluorescence telescopes and surface detectors. The surface detectors are arranged to be suitable for hybrid energy spectrum measurements in the low-energy region. We measured the energy spectrum with the 392 hours observation data of the TALE hybrid detector. This energy spectrum measurement will play an important role in understanding the transition from cosmic rays of galactic origin to those of extragalactic origin.

Latest measurements of ΔηΔφ correlations of identified particles show differences in particle production between baryons and mesons. The correlation functions for mesons exhibit the expected peak dominated by effects of mini-jet fragmentation and are reproduced well by general purpose Monte Carlo generators. For baryon pairs (where both particles have the same baryon number) a surprising near-side anti-correlation structure is observed instead of a peak, implying that two such particles are rarely produced with similar momentum. These results present a challenge to the contemporary models and there is no definite theoretical explanation of the observation. In this proceedings an overview of the latest baryon correlation measurements yielding startling results are presented.

We discuss the similarity of the constituent monopoles of calorons and stable topological solitons with long range Coulombic interaction, classical solutions of the model of topological particles. In the interpretation as electric charges they can be compared to electrons and positrons with spin up and down, with quantised charge and finite mass.

The main source of systematic uncertainty on neutrino cross section measurements at the GeV scale is represented by the poor knowledge of the initial flux. The goal of cutting down this uncertainty to 1% can be achieved through the monitoring of charged leptons produced in association with neutrinos, by properly instrumenting the decay region of a conventional narrow-band neutrino beam. Large angle muons and positrons from kaons are measured by a sampling calorimeter on the decay tunnel walls (tagger), while muon stations after the hadron dump can be used to monitor the neutrino component from pion decays. This instrumentation can provide a full control on both the muon and electron neutrino fluxes at all energies. Furthermore, the narrow momentum width (<10%) of the beam provides a O(10%) measurement of the neutrino energy on an event by event basis, thanks to its correlation with the radial position of the interaction at the neutrino detector. The ENUBET project has been funded by the ERC in 2016 to prove the feasibility of such a monitored neutrino beam and is cast in the framework of the CERN neutrino platform (NP06) and the Physics Beyond Colliders initiative. In our contribution, we summarize the ENUBET design, physics performance and opportunities for its implementation in a timescale comparable with next long baseline neutrino experiments.

As part of the ongoing AugerPrime upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we are deploying short aperiodic loaded loop antennas measuring radio signals from extensive air showers in the 30 – 80 MHz band on each of the 1,660 surface detector stations. This new Radio Detector of the Observatory allows us to measure the energy in the electromagnetic cascade of inclined air showers with zenith angles larger than ∼ 65°. The water-Cherenkov detectors, in turn, perform a virtually pure measurement of the muon component of inclined air showers. The combination of both thus extends the mass-composition sensitivity of the upgraded Observatory to high zenith angles and therefore enlarges the sky coverage of mass-sensitive measurements at the highest energies while at the same time allowing us to cross-check the performance of the established detectors with an additional measurement technique. In this contribution, we outline the concept and design of the Radio Detector, report on its current status and initial results from the first deployed stations, and illustrate its expected performance with a detailed, end-to-end simulation study.

The computed tomography imaging spectrometer (CTIS) is a relatively unknown snapshot hyperspectral camera. It utilizes computational imaging approaches to gain the hyperspectral image from a spatiospectral smeared sensor image. We present a strongly miniaturized system with a dimension of only 36mm x 40.5mm x 52.8mm and a diagonal field of view of 29°. We achieve this using a Galilean beam expander and a combination of off-the-shelf lenses, a highly aspherical imaging system from a commercial smartphone and a 13 MP monochrome smartphone image sensor. The reconstructed hyperspectral image has a spatial resolution of 400 x 300 pixel with 39 spectral channels.

In this paper we introduce the Terzina telescope as a part of the NUSES space mission. This telescope aims to detect Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) through the Cherenkov light emission from the extensive air showers (EAS) that they create in the Earth’s atmosphere. The Cherenkov photons are aligned along the shower axis inside about ∼ 0.2 − 1°, so that they become detectable by Terzina when it points towards the Earth’s limb. A sun-synchronous orbit will allow the telescope to observe only the night side of the Earth’s atmosphere. In this contribution, we focus on the description of the telescope detection goals, geometry, optical design and its photon detection camera composed of Silicon Photo-Multipliers (SiPMs). Moreover, we describe the full Monte Carlo simulation chain developed to estimate Terzina’s performance for UHECR detection. The estimate of the radiation damage and light background rates, the readout electronics and trigger logic are briefly described. Terzina will be able to study the potential for future physics missions devoted to UHECR detection and to UHE neutrino astronomy. It is a pathfinder for missions like POEMMA or future constellations of similar satellites to NUSES.

Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) with single light-sheet illumination enables rapid 3Dimaging of living cells. In this paper we show the design, fabrication and characterization of a diffractive optical element producing several light sheets along an inclined tube for applications in flow-driven imaging. The element, which is based on a multi-focal Fresnel zone plate and a linear grating, generates in combination with a refractive cylindrical lens five thin light sheets of equal intensity.

Nuclear reaction data required for astrophysics and applications is incomplete, as not all nuclear reactions can be measured or reliably predicted. Neutron-induced reactions involving unstable targets are particularly challenging, but often critical for simulations. In response to this need, indirect approaches, such as the surrogate reaction method, have been developed. Nuclear theory is key to extract reliable cross sections from such indirect measurements. We describe ongoing efforts to expand the theoretical capabilities that enable surrogate reaction measurements. We focus on microscopic predictions for charged-particle inelastic scattering, uncertainty-quantified optical nucleon-nucleus models, and neural-network enhanced parameter inference.

Neutron-induced reactions involving unstable targets are particularly challenging, but often critical for simulations. In response to this need, indirect approaches, such as the surrogate reaction method, have been developed. Nuclear theory is key to extract reliable cross sections from such indirect measurements. We describe ongoing efforts to expand the theoretical capabilities that enable surrogate reaction measurements.
