We investigate the effect of inertial range magnetohydrodynamic turbulence to the 1-dimensional force-field model. Using well established quasilinear theory together with the recently available magnetic power spectrum from Parker Solar Probe, we perform calculations of parallel diffusion coefficient, modulation potential and galactic cosmic ray flux in the inner heliosphere. The model applies...

Cosmic Rays (CR) inside the Heliosphere interact with the solar wind and with the interplanetary magnetic field, resulting in a temporal variation of the cosmic ray intensity near Earth for rigidities up to few tens of GV. This variation is known as Solar Modulation. Previous AMS results on proton and helium spectra showed how the two fluxes behave differently in time. To better understand...

While the accuracy of current cosmic-ray (CR) data allows us to carry out precise tests of our models of propagation of charged particles in the Galaxy, the precision of cross sections data for the production of secondary particles (secondary CRs, neutrinos, gamma rays) is very poor, considerably limiting these tests. Given that most of the calculations of these cross sections from fundamental...

Galactic cosmic ray nuclei have been measured at the GeV and TeV scale, confirming a diverse set of elemental species. These measurements heavily impact our understanding of both Galactic accelerator candidates and cosmic ray propagation. Light cosmic ray isotope abundances deliver a crucial and independent measurement on the latter. Long-lived unstable nuclei such as beryllium-10 provide a...

We present high statistics measurements of the secondary cosmic rays Lithium, Beryllium, Boron, and Fluorine based on 10 years of AMS data. The properties of the secondary cosmic ray fluxes and their ratios to the primary cosmic rays Li/C, Be/C, B/C, Li/O, Be/O, B/O, and F/Si are discussed. The systematic comparison with the latest GALPROP cosmic ray model is presented.

121. Unique Properties of the 3rd Group of Cosmic Rays: Results from the Alpha Magnetic SpectrometerDr Valerio Formato (INFN - Sezione di Roma Tor Vergata)09/08/2022, 16:10Cosmic RaysParallel Talk
Cosmic Nitrogen, Sodium, and Aluminum nuclei are a combination of primaries, produced at cosmic-ray sources, and secondaries resulting from collisions of heavier primary cosmic rays with the interstellar medium. We present high statistics measurements of the N, Na and Al rigidity spectra. We discuss the properties and composition of their spectra and present a novel model-independent...

The AMS-02 experiment has provided high-precision measurements of several cosmic-ray (CR) species. I plan to review the implication of the CR measurements of antiprotons, protons, helium, helium 3, boron, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. The achieved percent-level accuracy allows us, for example, to investigate different CR propagation scenarios or to study the universality of CR acceleration, a...

The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection (HERD) facility is one of several space astronomy payloads onboard the future Chinese Space Station (CSS), planned for operation starting around 2027 for about 10 years. HERD is a China-led mission with key European contributions led by Italy. The primary scientific objectives of HERD are: Indirect dark matter search with unprecedented sensitivity;...

We present the first results of the ERC PeVSPACE project, aimed at fundamentally improving the precision of direct cosmic ray measurements at the highest energies – in the TeV–PeV range, on DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) and High Energy Radiation Detector (HERD) experiments.
DAMPE and HERD provide a unique opportunity of directly probing cosmic ray spectra close to the “knee”....

We are observing extensive air showers using the Tibet-III air shower array and the undergound water-Cherenkov Muon Detector array (MD) to measure the chemical composition of cosmic rays around the knee energy region. We have developed a method to select air showers induced by primary protons with the energy between 40 TeV and 630 TeV by using the number of muons detected by the MD in each...

The IceTop array, located at the surface of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, is currently used as a veto for the in-ice neutrino detector as well as a cosmic ray detector. Built from 162 ice Cherenkov tanks, its sensitivity has been reducing over the operational years due to snow accumulation on the tanks. In order to mitigate this issue as well as further increase the accuracy of cosmic-ray...

The complete IceCube Observatory has collected over 620 billion cosmic-ray induced muon events from May 2011 to May 2021. These unprecedented statistics make it possible to observe significant structure in the cosmic-ray arrival direction distribution at both higher cosmic-ray energies and smaller angular scales. Combined with improved simulation and systematics, we can provide a newly...

Thermal electrons cannot directly participate in the process of diffusive acceleration at electron-ion shocks because their Larmor radii are smaller than the shock transition width: this is the well-known electron injection problem of diffusive shock acceleration. Instead, an efficient pre-acceleration process must exist that scatters electrons off of electromagnetic fluctuations on scales...

Precision measurements of cosmic ray positrons are presented up to 1.4 TeV based on 3.4 million positrons collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station. The positron flux exhibits complex energy dependence. Its distinctive properties are: (a) a significant excess starting from 24.2 GeV compared to the lower-energy, power-law trend; (b) a sharp drop-off above...

Latest results by AMS on the fluxes and flux ratios of charged elementary particles in the absolute rigidity range from 1 up to 2000 GV reveal unique properties of cosmic charged elementary particles. In the absolute rigidity range ~60 to ~500 GV, the antiproton flux and proton flux have nearly identical rigidity dependence. This behavior indicates an excess of high energy antiprotons compared...
