Cosmic γ rays and cosmic-ray particles [PDF]

open access: possibleNature, 1983
Recent experiments using extensive air shower techniques1–5 have given evidence for the presence of significant fluxes of cosmic γ rays, in the energy range 1015–1016 eV, from specific cosmic sources. We argue here that the flux from these sources, and others as yet unresolved, is probably sufficient to allow the explanation of a number of previously ...

Cosmic Rays and Cosmology

Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2004
Two aspects of cosmic rays and cosmology are considered here. Firstly, the relevance of extragalactic cosmic rays to the radiation – and magnetic – fields in the Universe and secondly the contribution of Galactic cosmic rays (or other entities allied to them) to the 'foreground' in analysis of the cosmic microwave background (CMB).

Cosmic-ray astrochemistry

Chemical Society Reviews, 2013
Gas-phase chemistry in the interstellar medium is driven by fast ion-molecule reactions. This, of course, demands a mechanism for ionization, and cosmic rays are the ideal candidate as they can operate throughout the majority of both diffuse and dense interstellar clouds.

Cosmic rays underground

Il Nuovo Cimento, 1952
Cosmic rays undergound are treated as entirely caused by the electromagnetic interactions of μ-mesons. Simple approximations are given for the underground spectra of μ-mesons, virtual photons, soft showers, and nucleons. Comparison with experimental data is satisfactory on the absolute rate of slow neutron and nuclear star production, and on the charge

Cosmic ray interactions

2010
This book is not a book on high energy physics and particle interactions. We have, however, to give the reader some information on the structure of matter and the interactions between its building blocks, because these are necessary for the understanding of the phenomena of cosmic ray acceleration, propagation in the Universe, and detection.
