Thus\, reg ions of star-forming galaxies and regions of intense star formation natura lly generate high number densities of cosmic rays and are therefore strong sources of radio\, gamma-ray\, and neutrino emission. As such\, they are of particular interest for studying the fundamental properties of cosmic rays populations and their importance in feedback mechanisms.

Compared to ground-based air shower arrays\, the LAT p rovides complementary capabilities regarding cosmic-ray anisotropy. It is sensitive in the ~100 GeV energy range and above\, views the entire sky u sing a single instrument with no holes in exposure\, and can efficiently d iscriminate protons from heavier nuclei as well as from leptons and gamma rays. Moreover\, while ground-based instruments are only sensitive to the right ascension component of cosmic-ray anisotropy\, the LAT is sensitive to all orientations of anisotropy. I will present a search for cosmic-ra y proton anisotropy with eight years of LAT data\, the largest all-sky cos mic-ray proton data set ever collected in this energy range (80 GeV to 10 TeV).

In the latter case\, analytic models may provide a less accurate\, yet simpler and more accessible alter native to computationally expensive high-resolution magnetofluid simulatio ns. In this talk\, I will present and review the physical basis\, method\, and properties of our analytic model for the interstellar magnetic field draping around the heliosphere\, including a comparison and performance ev aluation with respect to a fully self-consistent simulation. \nTogether wi th the Rankine half-body flow\, the field forms an exact solution to the i nduction equation of ideal MHD\, and maintains this property even after tr ansformations such as flattening and bulging of the heliotail have been im posed.

Using IceCube and a h igh-acceptance dataset of atmospheric neutrinos created for this analysis\ , we are nearing the sensitivity threshold to observe the phenomenon in at mospheric neutrinos arriving from the Northern Hemisphere. This analysis f ocuses on energy ranges that correspond to the spatially-consistent lower energy features of the dipole structure. Due to the statistical limitation s of the neutrino dataset in comparison to the cosmic ray datasets\, we al so introduce new methods for detecting signal beyond the familiar multipol e analysis\, which will also be implemented. These include a 1D relative i ntensity fit to determine the amplitude and phase of the dipole\, and a 2D binned log-likelihood analysis focusing on searching for observed anisotr opy maps from the Tibet collaboration.

This region\, also known as the L ocal Interstellar Cloud (LIC)\, is the closest interstellar medium and int eracts with the solar wind to create the heliosphere. The current state o f the LIC\, however\, has been determined by processes in the more distant local interstellar medium which includes a variety of regions ranging fro m the hot\, very low density Local Bubble to the warm Complex of Local Int erstellar Clouds (CLIC) to the cold\, dense gas in the Local Leo Cold Clou d. We will discuss the physical properties of the LIC and the local ISM a nd our sources of information on them. We also discuss our modeling of th e origins and evolution of Local Bubble and CLIC. The Local Bubble is fou nd to require at least two supernova explosions for its creation and the C LIC\, including the LIC\, can be explained as originating as cold dense cl ouds embedded in a lower density warm medium which was overrun by supernov a blast waves. The magnetic field configuration that results from this ev olution could be important for understanding cosmic ray anisotropy.\n\nhtt ps://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5588/ LOCATION:Guadalajara\, Mexico URL:https://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5588/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Welcome message DTSTART:20171010T132000Z DTEND:20171010T135000Z DTSTAMP:20260912T115300Z UID:indico-contribution-5590@events.icecube.wisc.edu DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Juan Carlos Díaz Vélez (Universidad de Guadalajara )\n\nhttps://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5590/ LOCATION:Lecture Hall (IAM) URL:https://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5590/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:CALET preliminary results on the cosmic ray observations for the f irst two-years on the ISS DTSTART:20171011T221000Z DTEND:20171011T224000Z DTSTAMP:20260912T115300Z UID:indico-contribution-5591@events.icecube.wisc.edu DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Yoichi Asaoka (WISE\, Waseda University)\, Shoji Tor ii (Waseda University)\n\nThe CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) spac e experiment\, which has been developed by Japan in collaboration with Ita ly and the United States\, is a high-energy astroparticle physics mission. The instrument was launched on August 19\, 2015 to the ISS with HTV-5 (H- II Transfer Vehicle 5) and installed on the Japanese Experiment Module - E xposed Facility (JEM-EF) on August 25.\nThe primary goals of the CALET mis sion include investigating on the presence of possible nearby sources of h igh-energy electrons\, studying the details of galactic particle propagati on and searching for dark-matter signatures. During a two-year mission\, e xtendable to five years\, the CALET experiment is measuring the flux of co smic-ray electrons (including positrons) to 20 TeV\, gamma-rays to 10 TeV and nuclei with Z=1 to 40 up to several 100 TeV. The instrument consists o f two layers of segmented plastic scintillators for the cosmic-ray charge identification (CHD)\, a 3 radiation length thick tungsten/scintillating-f iber imaging calorimeter (IMC) and a 27 radiation length thick lead-tungst ate (PWO) calorimeter (TASC). CALET has sufficient depth\, imaging capabil ities and excellent energy resolution to allow for a clear separation betw een hadrons and electrons and between charged particles and gamma rays. \n Since the start of operation from in mid-October\, 2015\, continuous o bservation has been carried out without any major interruption\, mainly by triggering on high-energy (>10 GeV) showers. The number of triggered eve nts is about 20 million per month. By using the data obtained so far\, we will present a summary of preliminary results by from the CALET observati ons on 1) Electron energy spectrum\, 2) Proton and Nuclei spectra\, 3) Gam ma-ray observations\, with results of the an on-orbit performance study.\n \nhttps://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5591/ LOCATION:Guadalajara\, Mexico URL:https://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5591/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Indirect CR experiments DTSTART:20171010T135000Z DTEND:20171010T143500Z DTSTAMP:20260912T115300Z UID:indico-contribution-5593@events.icecube.wisc.edu DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Segev BenZvi (o=rochester\,ou=Institutions\,dc=icecu be\,dc=wisc\,dc=edu)\n\nhttps://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contribut ions/5593/ LOCATION:Lecture Hall (IAM) URL:https://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5593/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Anisotropies in the flux of UHECRs DTSTART:20171011T152500Z DTEND:20171011T155500Z DTSTAMP:20260912T115300Z UID:indico-contribution-5595@events.icecube.wisc.edu DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Edivaldo Moura Santos (University of Sao Paulo)\n\nW e review recent results on anisotropies in the flux of UHECRs measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory.

Energy spectrum\, composition and anisotropy are changed due to deflections in magnetic fields and interact ions with the interstellar medium. Today the transport is simulated with d ifferent simulation methods either based on the solution of a transport eq uation (multi-particle picture) or a solution of the equation of motion (s ingle-particle picture).\n\nThe publicly available propagation software CR Propa 3.1 can solve both approaches in two distinct modules. This duality allows the user to pick the right ansatz that suits best for the existing problem. The implemented code for the diffusion approach used stochastic d ifferential equations (SDEs) to solve the transport equation. In doing so\ , it is possible to apply complicated anisotropic diffusion tensors in (ne arly) arbitrary background fields which are necessary to describe the obse rved arrival direction of cosmic rays.\n\nIn this talk\, the two propagati on concepts are discussed and compared. It will focus mainly on the new di ffusion ansatz and emphasize the advantages of SDEs over conventional grid based solvers. Furthermore\, first use-cases of this software are present ed.\n\nhttps://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5600/ LOCATION:Guadalajara\, Mexico URL:https://events.icecube.wisc.edu/event/84/contributions/5600/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Cosmic Ray Energy Spectrum and Anisotropy with ARGO-YBJ DTSTART:20171010T163500Z DTEND:20171010T170500Z DTSTAMP:20260912T115300Z UID:indico-contribution-5601@events.icecube.wisc.edu DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Giuseppe Di Sciascio (INFN - Roma Tor Vergata)\n\nTh e ARGO-YBJ experiment has been in stable data taking for more than 5 years at the YangBaJing Cosmic Ray Observatory (Tibet\, P.R.
