Scientific paper

The recent achievements of ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) are briefly reviewed. UHECRs are particles with energy above ≍1019eV, which may play an important role in modern high-energy physics, particle physics and cosmology. However, the origin and the composition of UHECRs are still enigmas. Beginning with the GZK cutoff, we present the observations and theoretical models for the UHECR study. It is a common point that these energetic particles may become a window to new physics.
