Accelerator Data for Cosmic Ray Physics
M.G. Albrow (Fermilab)
TL;DR
This paper reviews accelerator data, especially from hadron colliders in the forward region, to improve understanding of cosmic ray showers, highlighting the scarcity of high-energy data in this area.
Contribution
It provides a focused analysis of accelerator data relevant to cosmic ray physics, emphasizing the importance of the forward region where data are limited.
Findings
Accelerator data from hadron colliders inform cosmic ray shower models.
High-energy data in the forward region are scarce but crucial.
Understanding of cosmic ray showers benefits from collider data in the forward region.
Abstract
I present selected examples of accelerator data, mainly from hadron colliders, that are relevant for understanding cosmic ray showers. I focus on the forward region, , where high energy data are scarce, since the emphasis in collider physics became high- phenomena.
