We present new parametrisations of energy spectra of secondary particles, $\pi$-mesons, gamma-rays, electrons and neutrinos, produced in inelastic proton-proton collisions. The simple analytical approximations based on imulations of proton-proton interactions using the public available SIBYLL code, provide very good accuracy for energy distributions of secondary products in the energy range above 100 GeV. Generally, the recommended analytical formulae deviate from the simulated distributions within a few percent over a large range of $x=E_i/E_p$ - the fraction of energy of the incident proton transferred to the secondaries. Finally, we describe an approximate procedure of continuation of calculations towards low energies, down to the threshold of $\pi$-meson production.

  1. Modelling Galactic neutrino emission: contributions from massive star clusters and interstellar cosmic rays

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Computes neutrino template maps from the Galactic Plane including star cluster emission, finding the cluster contribution may be non-negligible and consistent with IceCube best-fit templates.

  2. Multi-Wavelength Signatures of a Giant Cometary Radio Halo in MACSJ0417-1154

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    MACSJ0417’s giant radio halo shows spectral steepening and radio–X-ray correlation consistent with turbulence from a 6:1 off-axis merger that preserved the cool core; pure hadronic models are energetically excluded.

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Gamma-ray upper limits from five high-energy observatories constrain the annihilation cross sections of composite dark matter in the mass range 10^5--10^12 GeV.

    astro-ph.HE 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Hadronic proton-proton interactions in a superdiffusive one-zone model with proton luminosity 0.14 of spin-down power and diffusion index 1.05 reproduce the 7-200 TeV gamma-ray spectrum from PSR J0622+3749 halo at amb...

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Monte Carlo simulations of nuclear cascades in NGC 1068 demonstrate that injected nuclear composition imprints on neutrino and gamma-ray spectra, supported by a re-analysis of archival COMPTEL observations.

  6. Suppressed diffusion and gamma-ray emission from the Cygnus Bubble

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Numerical transport modeling of the Cygnus Bubble finds that spatially dependent Bohm diffusion and strong suppression of the diffusion coefficient over at least 150 pc are required to match the observed gamma-ray spe...

    astro-ph.HE 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Synchrotron self-absorption alters radiation-mediated shock profiles for magnetizations above 10^{-8}, subshocks appear above 0.1, and hadronic processes add a high-energy photon tail with negligible effect on overall...

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Alternative ISRF models produce only modest changes to the LHAASO diffuse gamma-ray fit; the associated pp neutrinos remain consistent with IceCube all-sky data and compatible with ANTARES/KM3NeT limits.
