Search for ultra-high energy photons using air showers
read the original abstract
The observation of photons with energies above 10^18 eV would open a new window in cosmic-ray research, with possible impact on astrophysics, particle physics, cosmology and fundamental physics. Current and planned air shower experiments, particularly the Pierre Auger Observatory, offer an unprecedented opportunity to search for such photons and to complement efforts of multimessenger observations of the universe. We summarize motivation, achievements, and prospects of the search for ultra-high energy photons.

Cosmogenic photon fluxes at ultra-high energies
Cosmogenic photon fluxes from ultra-high-energy cosmic rays are predicted for six source scenarios; mixed scenarios without protons lie >1.5 orders below present limits, while some pure-proton parameter combinations a...
