Production of Atomic Rays and of Cosmic Rays in Supernovae

Detailed analysis of observed antiprotons in cosmic rays

In the present work, the origin of antiprotons observed in cosmic rays (above the atmosphere) is analyzed in details. We have considered the origin of the primaries, (which their interactions with the interstellar medium is one of the most important sources of antiprotons) is a supernova type II then used a diffusion model for their propagation. We have used the latest parameterization for anti...

Cosmic Rays from Trans-relativistic Supernovae

We derive constraints which must be satisfied by the sources of ∼ 1015 to ∼ 1018 eV cosmic rays, under the assumption that the sources are Galactic. We show that while these constraints are not satisfied by ordinary supernovae, which are believed to be the sources of . 1015 eV cosmic rays, they may be satisfied by the recently discovered class of trans-relativistic supernovae (TRSNe), supernova...

The cosmic radiation incident at the top of the terrestrial atmosphere includes all stable charged particles and nuclei with lifetimes of order 106 years or longer. Technically, “primary” cosmic rays are those particles accelerated at astrophysical sources and “secondaries” are those particles produced in interaction of the primaries with interstellar gas. Thus electrons, protons and helium, as...

Cosmic Rays

In this talk I present resent results on high energy cosmic rays, including energy spectra, composition and the study of arrival directions of cosmic ray primaries. Some related results in gamma-ray astronomy and selected recent advances in theory are also covered. c ⃝ Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Licence.
