CERN is The European Organization for Nuclear Research located in Switzerland and operates the world largest particle accelerator - the Hadron Collider where the elusive Higgs-Bosun particle was recently detected (maybe). This is one of the best places on earth for particle physics - which includes cosmic rays.

OK, sure, why not? If we can turn our iPhones and Windows Surface and Android phones into cosmic ray detectors, why not the moon?

Daniel Whiteson's et al. paper explaining how the mobile device cosmic ray detector works.

He crated DECO and researches gamma-ray astronomy, neutrino-astronomy.

This is about Dr. Vandenbroucke's project - DECO.

Dr. Lazzati says that Wikipedia is a pretty good source for basic astrophysics.

This is where you can join the reasarch network and download apps for smartphones and tablets (iOS, Android, Windows).

Here is what the network of mobile device detectors have found so far. You can join this effort.
