Transition from Diffusion to Drift-Dominated Cosmic Ray Transport and the Origin of the Knee
Luis Enrique Espinosa Castro, Carmelo Evoli, Pasquale Blasi
In a magnetic field with a complex topology, as can be the Galactic magnetic field, cosmic ray transport cannot simply be described by diffusion parallel and perpendicular to magne…
Multimessenger Concordance for the Cygnus Region as the Source of the Cosmic-Ray Knee
Luis E. Espinosa Castro, Kotha Murase, Carlo Rizza +3
The origin of the cosmic-ray (CR) knee remains one of the central open questions in particle astrophysics. Recent measurements by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory rev…
LHAASO protons versus LHAASO diffuse gamma-rays: a consistency check
Luis Enrique Espinosa Castro, Francesco Lorenzo Villante, Vittoria Vecchiotti +2
We perform the first direct consistency check between the recently measured proton spectrum at the knee by Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) and the collaboration…
