 | | BATAVIA, Illinois—Scientists of the Pierre Auger Observatory, a project to study the highest-energy cosmic rays, will hold a celebration to mark the presentation of the first physics results from the nearly-completed detector array in Malargüe, Argentina, from November 9 to November 11, 2005. |
 | | The Pierre Auger Observatory, which expects to release its first scientific data this summer, is exploring the mystery of high-energy cosmic rays—charged particles showering the earth at energies above 1019 electron volts, about 10 million times higher than the world’s highest-energy particle accelerator, the Tevatron at Fermilab. |
 | | The first physics results from the Pierre Auger Observatory are expected to show a new cosmic ray spectrum at the highest energies, the results of anisotropy and point source searches, and new limits on the photon content of the primaries that address a number of theories about exotic theories of cosmic ray origin. |
