Ultra High Energy Cosmic Ray (UHECR) propagation modelling and comparison with experimental data
Alberto Urena
I will go through all the details of how UHECR propagation is calculated. For this it is needed to assume some kind of source with some distribution in the universe, and then follow the different mechanisms for energy losses and deviations that take place on the UHECR way to Earth. I will make particular emphasis on the assumptions needed and how realistic we can make them. Then I will present a way of comparing the result of these simulations with data obtained for the Pierre Auger Observatory (PAO) and Telescope Array (TA) through harmonic space auto- and cross-correlations.
