On the ultra-high energy cosmic ray horizon

Astrophysics 2009-11-11 v2

Abstract

We compute the ultra-high energy cosmic ray horizon, i.e. the distance up to which cosmic ray sources may significantly contribute to the fluxes above a certain threshold on the observed energies. We obtain results both for proton and heavy nuclei sources.
