Searching for the Universe s Most Energetic Particles, Astronomers Turn on the Radio

Scientific American New radio-based observatories could soon detect ultrahigh-energy neutrinos, opening a new window on extreme cosmic physics Print An artist’s composite of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica, accompanied by a distant astrophysical source emitting neutrinos that are detected in IceCube’s subsurface sensors. Credit: IceCube and NSF Advertisement Ever since their discovery in the 1960s, ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays have captivated scientists, who wonder where they come from. Like all cosmic rays, they are arguably misnamed: they are not “rays” of radiation but rather subatomic particles, such as protons or even entire nuclei, zipping through space. Such ultrahigh energies come from ultrahigh speeds, approaching that of light itself.

Marshall science concept selected for further development

NASA has chosenÂ four small-scale astrophysics missions â including one led at Marshall Space Flight Center â for further concept development in a new program called Pioneers. Through small satellites and scientific balloons, these selections will enable new platforms for exploring cosmic phenomena such as galaxy evolution, exoplanets, high-energy neutrinos, and neutron star mergers. âThe principal investigators of these concept studies bring innovative, out-of-the-box thinking to the problem of how to do high-impact astrophysics experiments on a small budget,âÂ Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator of NASAâs Science Mission Directorate, said. âEach of the proposed experiments would do something no other NASA telescope or mission can do, filling important gaps in our understanding of the universe as a whole.âÂ
