Time Delays in Cosmic Ray Propagation
Cosmic Rays (CR) travel at speeds essentially indistinguishable from the speed of light. However whilst travelling through magnetic fields, both regular and turbulent, they are delayed behind the light since they are usually charged particles and their paths are not linear. Those delays can be so long that they are an impediment to correctly identifying sources which may be variable in time. Fu...

متن کاملCosmic Ray Origin and Propagation Model
It is presumed that the observed cosmic rays up to about 3 × 1018 eV are of Galactic origin, the particles being the ones which are found in the composition of the stellar winds of stars that explode as supernova into the interstellar medium (ISM) or into their winds. These particles are accelerated in the supernova shock. In order to obtain the observed cosmic ray spectrum it is necessary to t...
متن کاملNew constraints on Galactic cosmic - ray propagation
An extensive program for the calculation of galactic cosmic-ray propagation has been developed. Primary and secondary nucleons, primary and secondary electrons, secondary positrons and antiprotons are included. Fragmentation and energy losses are computed using realistic distributions for the interstellar gas and radiation fields. Models with diffusion and convection only do not account natural...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Study of Cosmic-Ray Propagation in the Galaxy and Diffuse Gamma- Ray Production
This work presents preliminary results for the time-dependent cosmic-ray propagation in the Galaxy by a fully 3-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation. The distribution of cosmic-rays (both protons and helium nuclei) in the Galaxy is studied on various spatial scales for both constant and variable cosmicray sources. The continuous diffuse gamma-ray emission produced by cosmic-rays during the propag...
