The GZK Puzzle and Fundamental Dynamics
A.A. Arkhipov
TL;DR
This paper explores the possibility that the GZK puzzle, related to ultra-high-energy cosmic rays, may be explained by complex structures in nuclear scattering cross sections affecting particle interactions.
Contribution
It proposes a novel connection between the GZK puzzle and the inelastic defect structure of total cross sections in nuclear scattering.
Findings
Suggests a link between GZK puzzle and nuclear scattering structures
Highlights the role of inelastic defect in high-energy interactions
Provides a new perspective on cosmic ray physics
Abstract
The conjecture that the GZK puzzle might be related with nontrivial structure of the inelastic defect of total cross sections in scattering from nuclei has been suggested.
