Interstellar Hydrogen and Cosmic Background Radiation
It is shown that a collection of photons with nearly the same frequency exhibits a ”condensation” type of phenomenon corresponding to a peak intensity. The observed cosmic background radiation can be explained from this standpoint in terms of the radiation due to fluctuations in interstellar Hydrogen. In a previous communication[1] it was suggested that the origin of the Cosmic Background Radia...
متن کاملCosmic-Ray Spectra in Interstellar Space
At energies below ~300 MeV/nuc our knowledge of cosmic-ray spectra outside the heliosphere is obscured by the energy loss that cosmic rays experience during transport through the heliosphere into the inner solar system. This paper compares measurements of secondary electron-capture isotope abundances and cosmic-ray spectra from ACE with a simple model of interstellar propagation and solar modul...
متن کاملOn the Motion of Cosmic Rays in Interstellar Space
The limitation of a current consisting of charged high energy particles (cosmic rays) passing through interstellar space is discussed. As interstellar matter is ionized, interstellar space is considered as a good conductor so that the electric field always equals zero. The motion of the particles is then governed by the magnetic fields produced by themselves. This sets a rather low upper limit ...
متن کاملTime 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 کاملCem2k and Laqgsm as Event Generators for Space-radiation-shielding and Cosmic-ray-propagation Applications
The CEM2k and LAQGSM codes have been recently developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory to simulate nuclear reactions for a number of applications. We have benchmarked our codes against most available data measured at incident particle energies from 10 MeV to 800 GeV and have compared our results with predictions of other current models used by the nuclear community. Here, we present a brief ...
