Referring to the observed data in the depletions of elements in the interstellar clouds, the chemical composition of dust grains has been deduced, though it is highly variable among these clouds. This variability seems to reflect upon the place where such dust grains are formed inside these clouds. Deep inside the clouds, the chemical composition of dust grains is well coincident with that of ... More

Further analysis is made on the Tibet hybrid experiment to measure the energy spectrum of light component (proton and helium) of the cosmic rays at the knee. The result from three years observation by the burst detectors operated with Tibet III air-shower array is presented and compared with the result of the first phase experiment.

Geminga is a nearby pulsar with an age of 3.42e+05 yr and a spin down power of 3.2e+34 erg/s at present. The wind of this pulsar most probably had powered a PWN that broke up about less than 1.e+05 yr after the birth of the pulsar. Assuming that leptonic particles accelerated by the pulsar were confined in the PWN and got released into the interstellar medium on breakup of the PWN, we calcu ... More

Energy spectra and chemical composition of the primary cosmic ray nuclei for energies higher than 1 PeV are obtained mainly from measurements of intensities and various properties of extensive air showers. Additional and importent data from the study of gamma ray families are available in addition. In bouth cases we have informations from the range of very high fluctuations. An importent fact ... More

The Ursa Major (UM) cluster of UHECRs consists of 5 events in the combined HiRes-AGASA sample above 10 EeV which are consistent with coming from a single point source, with little magnetic deflection. The probability of finding the cluster of 4 highest energy events by chance is about 2 10^-3; the probability that the 5th low energy event is a chance correlation, given the size of the low ene ...

Important information pertaining to the origin of high-energy cosmic rays can be gained by studying their mass composition in the region of the knee (~3 PeV). Thus, air showers have been observed at the South Pole using the SPASE-2 surface array, which measures the electron-component, and the AMANDA-2 neutrino telescope, which measures the coincident muon-component. These two components, t ... More

The arriving abundances of a variety of cosmic-ray nuclides consist of comparable amounts of primary material produced by stellar nucleosynthesis and secondary matter resulting from fragmentation of heavier nuclei by collisions during interstellar propagation. In order to utilize such species in studies of cosmic-ray source composition it is necessary to determine the secondary fraction pre ... More
