Results of experiments investigating air showers in the energy region of the knee are summarized. The all-particle energy spectrum, the mean logarithmic mass, and the average depth of the shower maximum will be discussed. Spectra for groups of elements from air shower data are compared to results from direct measurements.

Discussion (0). Continue with ORCID to comment.

  1. Hybrid Simulations of Proton Acceleration at Oblique High-$\beta$ Shocks

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5 of 10

    Weak quasi-perpendicular high-β ICM shocks accelerate protons inefficiently (ε_CR ≲ 0.1%), while Ms ≳ 10 or ϑ ≲ 45° shocks reach a few percent with steep spectra.

  2. SN 1006: A Cosmic Laboratory for Investigating Shock Acceleration Physics

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A self-consistent multi-zone kinetic model reproduces SN 1006's spectrum and morphology, finding ~20% CR acceleration efficiency in quasi-parallel shocks, <1% in quasi-perpendicular shocks, and predominantly leptonic ...

  3. Deciphering the AMS cosmic-ray positron flux

    hep-ph 2019-09 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using the Cannon-Ball model's original priors, the author computes a positron source spectrum whose shape matches AMS data, with an absolute normalization 23% higher than observed.
