A Fractal Scheme for Interaction Probabilities and the High Energy Cosmic Ray Spectrum

The present article is an attempt to provide a parametrization of particle production for the extreme energy range combining a fractal scheme for interaction probabilities and the observed power law energy spectrum for cosmic ray particles. As a first result towards a genuine transition matrix we co...

Summary:The present article is an attempt to provide a parametrization of particle production for the extreme energy range combining a fractal scheme for interaction probabilities and the observed power law energy spectrum for cosmic ray particles. As a first result towards a genuine transition matrix we conclude that for a scaling factor of d ~ 2 the matrix element |Mk| Ek5{expression}.
