Comic Rays in Interplanetary Magnetics Fields

Mehr zum Buch

A unified theoretical approach to cosmic rays is presented, analyzing their properties as a highly energetic component of interplanetary plasma. This monograph distinguishes itself by employing plasma physics methods to describe cosmic ray behavior, unlike previous works that primarily focused on galactic cosmic rays or the interplanetary medium. It delves into cosmic ray spectra, variations, abundances, gradients, and anisotropy, offering insights into the physical conditions of cosmic ray generation and propagation.
