The satellite-borne experiment PAMELA has been used to make new measurements of cosmic ray H and He isotopes. The isotopic composition was measured between 100 and 600 MeV/n for hydrogen and between 100 and 900 MeV/n for helium isotopes…
This paper determines the relative source spectra of cosmic ray H and He nuclei using a Leaky Box model for galactic propagation and the observed spectra of these nuclei from ~10 MeV/nuc to ~1 TeV/nuc. The observations consist of Voyager 1…
We present a comprehensive survey of CII* absorption detections toward stars within 100 pc in order to measure the distribution of electron densities present in the local interstellar medium (LISM). Using high spectral resolution…
Observations of cosmic-ray electrons and positrons have been made with a new balloon-borne detector, HEAT (the "High-Energy Antimatter Telescope"), first flown in 1994 May from Fort Sumner, NM. We describe the instrumental approach and the…
The intensities of the low energy part of the spectra of primary cosmic ray nuclei including C, O, Ne, Mg, Si and Fe measured by Voyager 1 beyond the heliopause are deficient relative to the spectra measured at energies above ~100 MeV/nuc…
We estimate the \HI intensity fluctuation power spectrum for a sample of 18 spiral galaxies chosen from THINGS. Our analysis spans a large range of length-scales from $\sim 300 {\rm pc}$ to $\sim 16 {\rm kpc}$ across the entire galaxy…
We report the flux measurement of the Vela like pulsar B1800-21 at the low radio frequency regime over multiple epochs spanning several years. The spectrum shows a turnover around the GHz frequency range and represents a typical example of…
High-harmonic generation (HHG) spectrum from a LiH molecule induced by an intense laser pulse is computed and analyzed with potential energy surfaces for electron motion (ePES) constructed from a model of localized electron wave packets…
We present high sensitivity, low radio frequency continuum observations of the ELAIS-N1 field with 32 hours of observations of the uGMRT Band-2 ($120-250$ MHz) covering $5.86\,\text{deg}^2$ area, achieving a central off-source RMS noise of…
The PAMELA satellite has observed an excess in the positron to electron ratio above theoretical predictions in the range 10 - 100 GeV that increases with energy. We propose that the excess is not due to a change in the local interstellar…
The PAMELA satellite experiment is providing first direct measurements of Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs) with energies from about 80 MeV to several GeV in near-Earth space, bridging the low energy data by other space-based instruments and…
The nature of the Local Interstellar Cloud (LIC) is highly constrained by the combination of in situ heliospheric and line-of-sight data towards nearby stars. We present a new interpretation of the LIC components of the absorption line data…
We present the results of new Agile observations of PSR B1509-58 performed over a period of 2.5 years following the detection obtained with a subset of the present data. The modulation significance of the lightcurve above 30 MeV is at a…
The solar limb darkening function is well known and is widely employed in models of the solar atmosphere. However, there has been a lack of systematic spectrally resolved measurements. Therefore we recently decided to start an observing…
Cosmic rays in the energy range from about 10's GeV to several 100's TeV are observed on Earth with an energy-dependent anisotropy of order 0.01-0.1%, and a consistent topology that appears to significantly change at higher energy. The…
Voyager 1 has explored the solar wind-interstellar medium interaction region between the terminal shock and heliopause following the intensity distribution of galactic cosmic ray protons above 200 MeV energy. Before this component reached…
In this Letter, we provide constraints on the direction and magnitude of the pristine (i.e., unperturbed by the interaction with the Sun) local interstellar magnetic field. The constraints are based on analysis of the interstellar magnetic…
In this paper we discuss some simple analytical models to fit the cosmic-ray (CR) proton data collected by the AMS detector in June 1998 and by the PAMELA detector in several campaigns covering the period 2006-2009. The CR proton spectrum…
We present the results of 2.5 years AGILE observations of PSR B1509-58. The modulation significance of the light-curve above 30 MeV is at a sigma confidence level and the light-curve is similar to those found earlier up to 30 MeV by \comp:…
The diffuse Galactic $\gamma$-ray emission, mainly produced via interactions between cosmic rays and the interstellar medium and/or radiation field, is a very important probe of the distribution, propagation, and interaction of cosmic rays…
