The distribution of arrival directions of cosmic rays is remarkably isotropic, which is a consequence of their repeated scattering in magnetic fields. Yet, high-statistics observatories like IceCube and HAWC have revealed the presence of…
The arrival directions of TeV-PeV cosmic rays are remarkably uniform due to the isotropization of their directions by scattering on turbulent magnetic fields. Small anisotropies can exist in standard diffusion models, however, only on the…
The measurement of the anisotropy in the arrival direction of cosmic rays is complementary to the study of their energy spectrum and chemical composition to understand their origin and propagation. It is also a tool to probe the structure…
The measurement of the anisotropies of cosmic ray arrival direction provides important informations on the propagation mechanisms and on the identification of their sources. In this paper we report the observation of anisotropy regions at…
The arrival directions of multi-TeV cosmic rays show significant anisotropies at small angular scales. It has been argued that this small-scale structure can naturally arise from cosmic ray scattering in local turbulent magnetic fields that…
In the standard picture of cosmic ray transport the propagation of charged cosmic rays through turbulent magnetic fields is described as a random walk with cosmic rays scattering on magnetic field turbulence. This is in good agreement with…
Important informations on the origin and the propagation mechanisms of cosmic rays may be provided by the measurement of the anisotropies of their arrival direction. In this paper the observation of anisotropy regions at different angular…
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…
Cosmic ray anisotropy has been observed in a wide energy range and at different angular scales by a variety of experiments over the past decade. However, no comprehensive or satisfactory explanation has been put forth to date. The arrival…
Deviations from isotropy have been a key tool to identify the sources and the primary type of cosmic rays (CRs) at low energies. We argue that anisotropies due to blind regions induced by the Galactic magnetic field, the cosmological…
We argue that the diffusion of cosmic rays in the Galactic magnetic field has to be strongly anisotropic. As a result, the number of CR sources contributing to the local CR flux is reduced by a factor $\sim 200$. The CR density is therefore…
The propagation of TeV-PeV cosmic rays (CR) in our Galaxy can be described as a diffusive process. We discuss here two effects, with important observational consequences, that cannot be predicted by the diffusion approximation in its usual…
The anisotropy of cosmic rays (CRs) in the solar vicinity is generally at- tributed to the CR streaming due to the discrete distribution of CR sources or local magnetic field modulation. Recently, the two dimensional large scale CR…
Important observational results have been recently reported on the angular distributions of cosmic rays (CRs) at all energies, calling into question the perception of CRs a decade ago. These results together with their in-progress…
We discuss recently published results of two-dimensional measurements of the cosmic ray anisotropy in the energy range 1-100 TeV. It is demonstrated that, in spite of pretence of the authors to measure the anisotropy in more detail than it…
Anisotropy is very important to understand cosmic ray (CR) source and interstellar environment. The theoretical explanation of cosmic rays anisotropy from experiments remains challenging and even puzzling for a long time. In this paper, by…
The propagation of cosmic rays (CRs) in turbulent interstellar magnetic fields is typically described as a spatial diffusion process. This formalism predicts only a small deviation from an isotropic CR distribution in the form of a dipole…
There is a growing set of observational data demonstrating that cosmic rays exhibit small-scale anisotropies (5-30 deg) with amplitude deviations lying between 0.01-0.1 percent that of the average cosmic ray flux. A broad range of models…
We introduce a novel diffusion model for the propagation of cosmic rays (CRs) that incorporates an anisotropic diffusion tensor of a general form within a realistically modeled large-scale Galactic magnetic field. The parameters of the…
Within the classical convection--diffusion approximation, we show that the angular distribution of cosmic rays (CRs) in a highly turbulent flow may exhibit significant small-scale anisotropies. The CR intensity angular power spectrum $…
