Rapporteur talk for Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (HE 1.3, 1.4, 1.5): Messengers of the Extreme Universe
Abstract
Description
In this report I summarize contributions on the highest energy cosmic rays to the 28th International Cosmic Ray Conference in Tsukuba, Japan, Sections HE 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 involved over 80 oral presentations and about 120 posters. This large body of work attests to the vitality of a field committed to resolving the mystery of the origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. These cosmic rays with energies well above $10^{18}$ eV are messengers of an unknown extremely high-energy universe.
