Ultra-high energy cosmic rays and Cosmology |
In the first part of the talk, I will discuss the impact of the cosmic microwave background on the ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) energy spectrum and anisotropy pattern. In the second part, I will illustrate with a few examples the importance of UHECR observations for some open issues in cosmology. |
