ultra high energy cosmic particles??
I know there have been serveral instances where protons have been detected traveling through our atmosphere with energies in excess of [tex]3*10^{20}[/tex] eV. This means that they might cause macroscopic effects as the proton would be traveling at speeds close to [tex]C[/tex]. I am just wondering if anyone can come up with a theory as to why and how this can happen??
I don't think its been solved so feel free to include random new strange theories, i enjoy reading them!
PEACE!
