Track: OG.1.2
We consider a generalized statistical model for the production process of cosmic rays. This model takes into account temperature distribution of sources and yields Tsallis statistics for cosmic ray energy spectrum. Results are compared with the experimental data.

Gamma rays have long been recognized as a uniquely powerful probe of the existence, origin, and nature of cosmic rays beyond the solar system. The unprecedented sensitivity and resolution of GLAST should for the first time confirm the presence of cosmic rays in Local Group galaxies today, and in all galaxies throughout the history of cosmic star formation. We show that GLAST should detect, ... More

Based on the cosmic-ray (CR) data currently available, we estimate the gas density, diffusion coefficient, and their spacial gradient in both the longitudinal and the latitudinal directions in the Galaxy. Applying our model on the three dimensional CR propagation for various CR observables such as stable nuclear components, isotopes, antiprotons, diffuse gamma-rays, we present analytical ... More

We report on a project to constrain the large-scale and turbulent magnetic fields of the Milky Way galaxy, which eventually will incorporate all of the relevant observational data. The initial work is based primarily on the WMAP3 polarization and intensity maps, plus a large number of galactic and extragalact point source Faraday Rotation Measures. Preliminary results on the Galactic magneti ... More

We present a Monte-Carlo calculation of the propagation of cosmic ray protons in the Galaxy for energies above 1 PeV. We discuss the relative strengths of competing effects such as parallel/perpendicular diffusion and drifts in toy models of the Galaxy. We compare our estimates with the results of the MC calculation for the toy models and then we apply the MC calculation to a few realistic mod ... More

The long-duration balloon flights of TRACER have provided new measurements of the intensities and energy spectra of the arriving cosmic-ray nuclei with 5 ≤ Z ≤ 26 at high energies. In order to determine the particle composition and energy spectra at the cosmic-ray sources, changes occurring during the interstellar propagation of cosmic rays must be known. We use a simple propagation mode ... More

Diffuse VHE γ radiation from the Galactic center ridge observed by the H.E.S.S. telescope has been convincingly linked with the propagation of recently accelerated cosmic rays that interact with molecular hydrogen clouds during their diffusion. Through a series of time-dependent simulations of that diffusion for different propagation parameters we have obtained the most probable values of the ... More
