In this paper we report a study of the isotopic composition of Li, Be, B and N, Ne nuclei from a 5 year time period beyond the heliopause using the CRS instruments on Voyager. By comparing the isotopic ratios, 15N/14N and 22Ne/20Ne outside…
Local interstellar spectra (LIS) for protons, helium and antiprotons are built using the most recent experimental results combined with the state-of-the-art models for propagation in the Galaxy and heliosphere. Two propagation packages,…
We study the time-dependent modulation effect and derive the local interstellar spectra (LIS) for the cosmic ray (CR) proton, helium, boron and carbon. A two-dimensional modulation model including the variation of the interplanetary…
Voyager 1 data from beyond the heliopause provide the first direct measurements of the interstellar cosmic ray spectra below 1 GeVnuc. In this paper we combine these Voyager measurements of H and He nuclei from 3-600 MeVnuc with higher…
In this work, we present for the first time the Lyman $\alpha$ intensities measured by Voyager 1/UVS in 2003-2014 (at 90-130 AU from the Sun). During this period Voyager 1 measured the Lyman $\alpha$ emission in the outer heliosphere at an…
A two-dimensional, time-dependent numerical model is used to calculate the modulation of cosmic rays in the heliosphere. Computations are compared to spacecraft observations in the inner and outer heliosphere. It is shown that the model…
The detectors of the UltraViolet Spectrographs (UVS) on Voyager 1/2 are recording a background that was earlier assigned to disintegrations in the RTG. We show that it arises instead from Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs). We show the 1992-2013…
Global gradients for cosmic-ray (CR) protons in the heliosphere are computed with a comprehensive modulation model for the recent prolonged solar minimum of Cycle 23/24. Fortunately, the PAMELA (Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and…
Voyager 1 has entered regions of different propagation conditions for energetic cosmic rays in the outer heliosheath beginning at a distance of about 111 AU from the Sun. This conclusion is based on the fact that the low energy 6-14 MeV…
Local interstellar spectra (LIS) of primary cosmic ray (CR) nuclei, such as helium, oxygen, and mostly primary carbon are derived for the rigidity range from 10 MV to ~200 TV using the most recent experimental results combined with the…
Utilizing new Voyager measurements at lower energies and higher energy spacecraft measurements near the Earth, the interstellar spectra of primary cosmic ray nuclei from H to Fe have now been determined from ~10 MeV/nuc to > 100 GeV/nuc.…
Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) are mainly protons confined in the galactic magnetic field to form an isotropic flux inside the galaxy. Before reaching the Earth orbit they enter the Heliosphere and undergo diffusion, convection, magnetic drift…
We have determined the interstellar spectra of cosmic ray protons and electrons from a few MeV to ~10 GeV. These interstellar spectra are based on Voyager data and a normalization of specific galactic propagation model calculations of both…
Ever since the discovery of Cosmic Rays (CRs), significant advancements have been made in modeling their propagation in the Galaxy and in the Heliosphere. However, propagation models suffer from degeneracy of many parameters. To complicate…
Until fairly recently, it was widely accepted that local cosmic ray spectra were largely featureless power laws, containing limited information on their acceleration and transport. This viewpoint is currently being revised in the light of…
The solar system is moving through the partially ionized local interstellar cloud (LIC). The ionized matter of the LIC interacts with the expanding solar wind forming the heliospheric interface. The neutral component (interstellar atoms)…
The time-dependent modulation of galactic cosmic rays in the heliosphere is studied by computing intensities using a time-dependent modulation model. By introducing recent theoretical advances in the transport coefficients in the model,…
Composition and spectra of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) are vital for studies of high-energy processes in a variety of environments and on different scales, for interpretation of gamma-ray and microwave observations, disentangling possible…
We have determined the solar modulation potential, phi, vs. time that is observed at Voyager 1 and 2 from measurements of the H and He nuclei intensities at a common energy of 250 MeVnuc. The H nuclei have a rigidity 0.7 GV, the He nuclei…
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…
