Oral presentation in parallel session
Galactic cosmic rays reach energies of at least several PeV, and their interactions should generate gamma rays and neutrinos from the decay of secondary pions. Therefore, Galactic sources are guaranteed to contribute to the total high-energy cosmic neutrino flux observed by IceCube. We present a search in IceCube data for neutrino emission from Galactic TeV gamma-ray sources detected by the...

The CALET (CALorimetric Electron Telescope) space experiment, which is currently conducting direct cosmic-ray observations onboard the International Space Station (ISS), uses an all-calorimetric instrument with total vertical thickness of 30 radiation lengths and fine imaging capability. The instrument is optimized for cosmic-ray electron measurements by achieving large proton rejection and...

Oral presentation in parallel session
GRAMS (Gamma-Ray and AntiMatter Survey) is a novel project that can simultaneously target both astrophysical observations with MeV gamma rays and an indirect dark matter search with antimatter. The GRAMS instrument is designed with a cost-effective, large-scale LArTPC detector surrounded by plastic scintillators. With more than an order of magnitude improved sensitivity, GRAMS can measure...
