The contribution of nearby supernova remnants on the cosmic ray flux at Earth.

AL-ZETOUN A. and ACHTERBERG A.

Abstract (from CDS):

We consider anisotropic diffusion of Galactic cosmic rays in the Galactic magnetic field, using the Jansson-Farrar model for the field. In this paper, we investigate the influence of source position on the cosmic ray flux at the Earth in two ways: (1) by considering the contribution from cosmic ray sources located in different intervals in Galactocentric radius, and (2) by considering the contribution from a number of specific and individual close-by supernova remnants. Our calculation is performed by using a fully three-dimensional stochastic method. This method is based on the numerical solution of a set of stochastic differential equations, equivalent to Ito formulation, that describes the propagation of the Galactic cosmic rays.
