We present a measurement of the cosmic-ray spectrum above 100\,PeV using the part of the surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory that has a spacing of 750~m. An inflection of the spectrum is observed, confirming the presence of the so-called \emph{second-knee} feature. The spectrum is then combined with that of the 1500\,m array to produce a single measurement of the flux, linking this spectral feature with the three additional breaks at the highest energies. The combined spectrum, with an energy scale set calorimetrically via fluorescence telescopes and using a single detector type, results in the most statistically and systematically precise measurement of spectral breaks yet obtained. These measurements are critical for furthering our understanding of the highest energy cosmic rays.

Scrutinizing the cosmogenic origin of the KM3-230213A event: A Multimessenger Perspective
astro-ph.HE 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10
A multimessenger transport calculation finds that KM3-230213A is plausibly cosmogenic only if it originates from hard-spectrum protons above the ankle with source evolution close to (1+z)^3.

On the Blueprint of Active Galaxies Producing Neutrinos
astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10
Neutrinos from active galaxies are produced in compact X-ray-bright coronae within about ten Schwarzschild radii of the black hole, and such sources may supply the diffuse neutrino flux.

Analysing Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays' Anisotropy in $\boldsymbol{f(R, T)}$ Gravity Theory
astro-ph.HE 2024-12 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10
Under f(R,T) gravity models, the predicted dipole anisotropy of diffusive UHECRs is lower than under ΛCDM, and with tuned magnetic field and source distance both fit Pierre Auger data.
