[Okc-wp4] EO meeting Oct 25

[Francesco Taddia]

Dear all,

on Thursday (Oct 25, 13:00-14:00, KTH meeting room on the 5th floor) we will have our next EO meeting,
where Francesca Capel will give the following talk:

Title: A hierarchical model for the sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR)

Abstract:
The study of UHECR is challenged by both the rarity of events and the difficulty in modelling their production, propagation and detection. I will present a Bayesian hierarchical model which enables a joint fit of the UHECR energy spectrum and arrival directions with a physical model of UHECR phenomenology. In this way, possible associations with candidate source catalogs can be assessed in a physically and statistically principled manner. Results from the application of the model to data from the Pierre Auger Observatory will also be shown.


cheers

/Francesco
