Abstract:
The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) is a high-energy cosmic ray and gamma-ray detector located in space. Over a period of seven years since its launch on December 17, 2015, DAMPE has surveyed the entire sky and collected an extensive dataset of more than 300,000 photons with energies above 2 GeV. To analyze the gamma-ray data obtained by DAMPE, instrument response functions (IRFs) have been derived, and a specialized software called DmpST has been developed. In this context, we present the results of the DAMPE gamma-ray point-like source catalog. This catalog provides valuable information about the detected gamma-ray sources, which includes details such as the positions, energy spectra, and flux measurements of these point-like gamma-ray sources. By studying these sources, scientists can gain insights into various astrophysical phenomena, including the emission processes and distribution of gamma-ray sources in the universe.Primary (astronomy)

A model to describe cosmic ray spectra in the energy region from 10 GeV to 100 PeV is suggested based on the assumption that Galactic cosmic ray flux is a mixture of fluxes accelerated by shocks from nova and supernova of different types. We analyze recent experimental data on cosmic ray spectra obtained in direct measurements above the atmosphere and data obtained with ground Extensive Air Shower arrays. The model of the three classes of cosmic ray sources is consistent with direct experimental data on cosmic ray elemental spectra and gives a smooth transition from the all particle spectrum measured in the direct experiments to the all particle spectrum measured with EAS.

We study the change in cosmic-ray pressure, the change in cosmic-ray density, and the level of cosmic-ray induced heating via Alfven-wave damping when cosmic rays move from a hot ionized plasma to a cool cloud embedded in that plasma. The general analysis method outlined here can apply to diffuse clouds in either the ionized interstellar medium or in galactic winds. We introduce a general-purpose model of cosmic-ray diffusion building upon the hydrodynamic approximation for cosmic rays (from McKenzie & Voelk and Breitschwerdt and collaborators). Our improved method self-consistently derives the cosmic-ray flux and diffusivity under the assumption that the streaming instability is the dominant mechanism for setting the cosmic-ray flux and diffusion. We find that, as expected, cosmic rays do not couple to gas within cool clouds (cosmic rays exert no forces inside of cool clouds), that the cosmic-ray density does not increase within clouds (it may slightly decrease in general, and decrease by an order of magnitude in some cases), and that cosmic-ray heating (via Alfven-wave damping and not collisional effects as for ~10 MeV cosmic rays) is only important under the conditions of relatively strong (10 micro-Gauss) magnetic fields or high cosmic-ray pressure (~10^{-11} ergs cm^{-3}).

We determined Weierstrass canonical form of cosmic time formula in the cases of four-component and some three-component universe, assuming the ?CDM model. In all other cases, we discussed analytical solutions for the cosmic time formula.

In this paper we summarize our modelling efforts for cosmic rays near the heliopause, and discuss whether galactic cosmic ray modulation beyond the heliopause is possible and present an explanation for the anisotropic nature of the observed cosmic ray intensities in the very local interstellar medium. We show that (i) modulation beyond the heliopause is possible, but highly dependent on the assumed parameters (most notable, the perpendicular diffusion coefficient). Treating the heliopause as a tangential discontinuity, significantly damps this modulation effect and leads to modelled results that are similar to Voyager 1 observations. (ii) By choosing an appropriate functional form of the perpendicular diffusion coefficient on the pitch-angle level, we are able to account for the anisotropic behaviour observed for both galactic and anomalous cosmic rays in the local interstellar medium.

Chemical composition of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays is estimated through the reliably determined (both experimentally and theoretically) distribution of the number of showers in the galactic latitude. Experimental data at energies of ∼1019 eV agree with the theoretical calculations, provided that cosmic rays involve predominantly heavy nuclei. An enhanced flux of cosmic rays from the galactic plane is detected at energies of ∼1019 eV.

Abstract Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) originate from sources outside the solar system and reach the Earth’s environment from all directions. More than 100 years after the first detection of cosmic rays, the origin of high-energy cosmic rays is still a mystery. Although our knowledge of the origin and propagation of cosmic rays is relatively limited, we can study the radiation conditions in the near-Earth space environment in more detail. The origin, composition, and energy spectra of cosmic rays are briefly discussed in this paper. A brief review of the transport of galactic cosmic rays in the heliosphere is given. The geomagnetic effects on galactic cosmic rays and the atmospheric interactions of primary particles are also discussed in the paper.

The transport and acceleration of galactic cosmic rays is discussed with emphasis on the highest energies. The mechanism of diffusive shock acceleration is shown to produce a near-universal spectrum which can account for most observed cosmic rays. A quasi-perpendicular shock in general accelerates particles faster and to higher energies than a comparable quasi-parallel shock. Application of these ideas to supernova blast waves suggests that they can produce galactic cosmic rays to the knee in the spectrum, some 3 ×10 15 eV. A similar blast wave, recently identified near the galactic center could accelerate particles to an energy of some 10 18 Z eV or higher (hereinafter Z is the charge in units of the elementary charge). It is possible that the highest-energy cosmic rays could come from the galactic center. If this is the case, there should be an enhancement of the flux of high-energy cosmic rays coming from the galactic center.
