“…New UHECR detectors in space, such as K-EUSO [943] or POEMMA will have much lower threshold than TUS and Mini-EUSO, and can measure even fainter ELVEs and other TLEs with a high temporal resolution. This will allow one to obtain fine profiles of the spatio-temporal dynamics of events and which will enable the study their formation mechanisms.…”

Pin down the shower energy observable to use μ as a composition-only Reduce hadronic uncertainties interaction model E threshold (TBD) Other messengers Galactic * μ / em separation † * depending on analysis progress † depending on detector configuration• At least one next-generation experiment needs to be able to make high-precision measurements to explore new particle physics and measure particle rigidity on an event-by-event basis. Of the planned next-generation experiments, GCOS is the best positioned to meet this recommendation.• As a complementary effort, experiments with sufficient exposure ( 5 × 10 5 km 2 sr yr) are needed to search for Lorentz-invariance violation (LIV), SHDM, and other BSM physics at the Cosmic and Energy Frontiers, and to identify UHECR sources at the highest energies.• Full-sky coverage with low cross-hemisphere systematic uncertainties is critical for astrophysical studies. To this end, next generation experiments should be space-based or multi-site. Common sites between experiments are encouraged.• Based on the productive results from inter-collaboration and inter-disciplinary work, we recommend the continued progress/formation of joint analyses between experiments and with other intersecting fields of research (e.g., magnetic fields).• The UHECR community should continue its efforts to advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility. It also needs to take steps to reduce its environmental impacts and improve open access to its data to reduce the scientific gap between countries.vi
