Jon Urheim is giving the Nov. 28 journal club on the latest Auger cosmic ray detector results. "Universe's Highest-Energy Particles Traced Back to Other Galaxies". This is the first time that charged particle cosmic rays have been traced back to their sources. The problem for lower energy cosmic rays, is that their paths are bent by magnetic fields. Now finally, we have gotten to high enough energy that the bending in magnetic fields is small.
