Spectrum of galactic cosmic rays accelerated in supernova remnants.

PTUSKIN V., ZIRAKASHVILI V. and SEO E.-S.

Abstract (from CDS):

The spectra of high-energy protons and nuclei accelerated by supernova remnant (SNR) shocks are calculated, taking into account magnetic field amplification and Alfvénic drift both upstream and downstream of the shock for different types of SNRs during their evolution. The maximum energy of accelerated particles may reach 5x1018 eV for Fe ions in Type IIb SNRs. The calculated energy spectrum of cosmic rays after propagation through the Galaxy is in good agreement with the spectrum measured at the Earth.
