Acceleration of Cosmic Radiation

Physical Review, 1958
Alfven's model of discontinuous magnetic field variations for the acceleration of cosmic rays by the betatron mechanism was generalized to continuous field variations. with special reference to sinusoidal fields. It is shown that the efflciency of this model is maximum when the "rate of randomization'' is equal to the frequency of oscillation of the ...

Radiation transport calculations for cosmic radiation

Annals of the ICRP, 2012
The radiation environment inside and near spacecraft consists of various components of primary radiation in space and secondary radiation produced by the interaction of the primary radiation with the walls and equipment of the spacecraft. Radiation fields inside astronauts are different from those outside them, because of the body's self-shielding as ...

Cosmic Neutrino Radiation

Science, 1960
New and more powerful methods for eliminating background intensity are needed in order to make possible the development of neutrino astronomy into a new, far-reaching branch of science.

Cosmic radiation effects on avionics

Microprocessors and Microsystems, 1999
Abstract The earth is bombarded by a nearly isotropic flux of energetic charged particles called cosmic rays which interact with air nuclei to generate a cascade of secondary particles building up to a maximum intensity at 60 000 feet. At normal cruising altitudes, the radiation is still several hundred times the ground level intensity.

On the Origin of the Cosmic Radiation

Physical Review, 1949
A theory of the origin of cosmic radiation is proposed according to which cosmic rays are originated and accelerated primarily in the interstellar space of the galaxy by collisions against moving magmetic fields. One of the features of the theory is that it yields naturally an inverse power law for the spectral distribution of the cosmic rays.
