Several cosmic-ray observatories have provided a high accuracy map of the sky at TeV--PeV energies. The data reveals an O(0.1%) deficit from north galactic directions that peaks at 10 TeV and then evolves with the energy, together with…
The existence of the cosmic ray Halo in our Galaxy has been discussed for more than half a century. If it is real it could help to explain some puzzling features of the cosmic ray flux: its small radial gradient, nearly perfect isotropy and…
This work presents a scenario of ultra-high energy cosmic ray source distribution where a nearby source is solely responsible for the anisotropies in arrival directions of cosmic rays while the rest of the sources contribute only…
The gamma-ray halo surrounding Geminga suggests a notable reduction in cosmic-ray diffusion. One potential explanation for this phenomenon is the projection effect of slow diffusion perpendicular to the average magnetic field (represented…
In this work we aim at reproducing, simultaneously, the spectral feature at $\sim 10 \, \mathrm{TeV}$ in the cosmic-ray proton spectrum, recently reported by the DAMPE Collaboration, together with the spectral break at $\sim 1 \,…
We analyze DAMPE and H.E.S.S. measurements of the total cosmic-ray electron-positron spectrum, together with the AMS-02 positron fraction, using an anisotropic, spatially varying diffusion framework. The diffusion-tensor components are…
Recent observations of cosmic rays (CRs) have revealed a two-component anomaly in the spectra of primary and secondary particles, as well as their ratios, prompting investigation into their common origin. In this study, we incorporate the…
Recent analyses of the anisotropy of cosmic rays at $10^{18}$ eV (the AGASA and SUGAR data) show significant excesses from regions close to the Galactic Centre and Cygnus. Our aim is to check whether such anisotropies can be caused by…
Precise measurements of the energy spectra of cosmic rays (CRs) show various kinds of features deviating from single power-laws, which give very interesting and important implications on their origin and propagation. Previous measurements…
We discuss the possibility that a dominant fraction of the cosmic rays above the ankle is due to a single nearby source, considering in particular the radio galaxy Centaurus A. We focus on the properties of the source spectrum and…
In an earlier paper, the effect of the nearby known supernova remnants (SNRs) on the local cosmic-rays (CRs) was studied, considering different possible forms of the particle injection time. The present work is a continuation of the…
Modern X-ray and $\gamma$-ray instruments are revealing a growing class of Galactic non-thermal sources whose emission centroids are measurably offset from the nearest plausible sites of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration. Such "displaced"…
We study in detail the effect of different particle release times from sources on the cosmic-ray (CR) spectrum below $10^{15}eV$ in the Galaxy. We discuss different possible forms of particle injection such as burst-like injection,…
We model the transport and spectral evolution of 1-100 GeV cosmic ray (CR) electrons (CREs) in TIGRESS MHD simulations of the magnetized, multiphase interstellar medium. We post-process a kpc-sized galactic disk patch representative of the…
Recent results of Milagro, Tibet, ARGO-YBJ and IceCube experiments on the small-scale anisotropy of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) with energies from units up to a few hundred TeV arise a question on a possible nature of the observed…
After more than a century of discovering cosmic rays, a comprehensive description of their origin, propagation, and composition still eludes us. One of the difficulties is that these particles interact with magnetic fields; therefore, their…
The spatial-dependent propagation model has been successfully used to explain diverse observational phenomena, including the spectral hardening of cosmic-ray nuclei above $200$ GV, the large-scale dipole anisotropy and the diffusive gamma…
The arrival direction distribution of cosmic ray particles observed on Earth is shaped by the cumulative effects of their galactic source locations and of trajectory bending in the turbulent interstellar magnetic field. Coherent magnetic…
The cosmic ray (CR) energy spectra measured with ATIC, CREAM and PAMELA showed that there is remarkable hardening for rigidity of several hundred GV. We propose that this hardening is due to the superposition of spectra from a population of…
We compute cosmic ray (CR) nuclei, proton, antiproton, electron and positron spectra below 1 TeV at Earth by means of a detailed transport description in the galaxy and in the solar system. CR spectra below 10 GeV are strongly modified by…
