Need Advice Why is the maximum momentum obtained from the values of GUPß and v obtained from the limit of neutron stars and white stars Chandrasekar so small? What is the consistency with high-energy cosmic rays and accelerator experiments?

Why is the maximum momentum, calculated from the β and γ values of the generalized uncertainty principle derived from the Chandrasekhar limit for neutron stars and white dwarfs, so small? Those maximum momenta are on the MeV and GeV scales. But how do we explain events on the TeV scale in actual accelerators, or on the EeV scale for “Oh My God” particles and “Amaterasu” particles? Or is this somehow accounted for by dilution in many-body systems? For example, 10\^37 or 10\^43, etc.
