A. A. Kochanov, T. S. Sinegovskaya, S. I. Sinegovsky

摘要:

在能量范围为10-10^5 GeV的宇宙线强子和μ子的大气通量的一个新的计算已经在强子产生模型EPOS 1.6、QGSJET II-03、SIBYLL 2.1和宇宙线物理学家感兴趣的其他模型中完成。本文利用ATIC-2、Gamma实验的直接数据和Zatsepin和Sokolskaya最近提出的模式以及Gaisser和Honda的初级宇宙线谱参数化方法,计算了大气中几个层次的次级宇宙射线通量。计算的强子和μ子通量的能谱作为天顶角的函数进行了比较,测量以及其他计算。考虑了初级宇宙线通量和强子模型预测的不确定性对大气强子和μ子谱的影响。

英文摘要:

A new calculation of the atmospheric fluxes of cosmic-ray hadrons and muons in the energy range 10-10^5 GeV has been performed for the set of hadron production models, EPOS 1.6, QGSJET II-03, SIBYLL 2.1, and others that are of interest to cosmic ray physicists. The fluxes of secondary cosmic rays at several levels in the atmosphere are computed using directly data of the ATIC-2, GAMMA experiments, and the model proposed recently by Zatsepin and Sokolskaya as well as the parameterization of the primary cosmic ray spectrum by Gaisser and Honda. The calculated energy spectra of the hadrons and muon flux as a function of zenith angle are compared with measurements as well as other calculations. The effect of uncertainties both in the primary cosmic ray flux and hadronic model predictions on the spectra of atmospheric hadrons and muons is considered.
