The chemical composition of the cosmic radiation around the ankle and the related spectral indices
Antonio Codino, Francois Plouin
Some recent measurements of the chemical composition of the cosmic radiation indicate that at the energy of 3 x 10 **18 eV, around the ankle, light cosmic ions dominate the spectru…
The Misleading Nature of the Leaky Box Models in Cosmic Ray Physics
Antonio Codino, Francois Plouin
Many experimental results around and above the energies where the solar modulation affects cosmic ion fluxes were quantified, conceptualized and debated using leaky box models. The…
The origin of the ankle
Antonio Codino, Francois Plouin
The differential intensity of cosmic radiation shows a sequence of depressions referred to as "knees" in a large energy band above 10^15 eV. The global depression entailed in the c…
A unique mechanism generating the knee and the ankle in the local galactic zone
Antonio Codino, Francois Plouin
A new, unique mechanism accounting for the knee and the ankle in the energy spectrum of the cosmic radiation is presented. The interplay of the form and strength of the galactic ma…
Galactic Basins of Helium and Iron around the Knee Energy
Antonio Codino, Francois Plouin
The differential energy spectrum of cosmic rays exhibits a change of slope, called "knee" of the spectrum, around the nominal energy of 3 x 10^15 eV, and individual "knees" for sin…
