Abstract / research summary
The Cosmic-Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory (CREDO) is a global collaboration designed to study cosmic rays and their interactions through an extremely distributed network of detectors. By using existing infrastructure such as smartphones, educational setups, and scientific detectors, CREDO seeks to detect cosmic-ray ensembles—correlated cosmic-ray events over large areas—potentially originating from exotic physics phenomena. The project emphasizes open access, public engagement, and citizen science, enabling contributions from scientists and non-scientists alike. This approach allows for new scientific insights while simultaneously providing educational and outreach opportunities. The paper discusses the scientific goals, current status, and future plans for CREDO, demonstrating its potential for both scientific advancement and societal impact.
