摘要
Experimental and theoretical situation in investigations of cosmic rays with energies higher than the knee is considered. The evidences of new state of matter production in interactions of PeV cosmic rays are analysed. Theoretical model of cosmic ray acceleration in cosmic plasma pinches with constant slope of energy spectrum gamma = root3 is described. Consequences for future experiments and for interpretation of their results around the cutoff are discussed.
