摘要:

我们表明,宇宙射线(CR)膝盖可以完全解释能量依赖的CR泄漏从银河系,与所有现有的数据非常适合。我们测试这一假设计算在银河系磁场的个人CR的轨迹。我们发现,CR逃逸时间$τ_{\rm esc}(E)$表现出膝状结构周围$E/Z={\rm few}\times 10^{15}$ eV的小相干长度和强度的湍流磁场。所得的强度为不同组的核是一致的KASCADE和KASCADE-Grande确定的,使用简单的幂律注入光谱。从银河系到河外CR的过渡在$\approx 2\times 10^{18}$ eV处终止,而河外CR对$\gtrsim 2\times 10^{16}$ eV处的次优势质子通量有相当大的贡献。在这个模型中,在中能区到脚踝的河外CR的自然来源是正常星系和星暴星系。逃逸模型提供了一个很好的$\ln(A)$数据拟合,它预测的CR偶极子的相位变化强烈的能量范围之间的$1\times 10^{17}$和$3\times 10^{18}$ eV,而我们的估计的偶极子幅度是一致的观察。

英文摘要:

We show that the cosmic ray (CR) knee can be entirely explained by energy-dependent CR leakage from the Milky Way, with an excellent fit to all existing data. We test this hypothesis calculating the trajectories of individual CRs in the Galactic magnetic field. We find that the CR escape time $τ_{\rm esc}(E)$ exhibits a knee-like structure around $E/Z={\rm few}\times 10^{15}$ eV for small coherence lengths and strengths of the turbulent magnetic field. The resulting intensities for different groups of nuclei are consistent with the ones determined by KASCADE and KASCADE-Grande, using simple power-laws as injection spectra. The transition from Galactic to extragalactic CRs is terminated at $\approx 2\times 10^{18}$ eV, while extragalactic CRs contribute sizeable to the subdominant proton flux already for $\gtrsim 2\times 10^{16}$ eV. The natural source of extragalactic CRs in the intermediate energy region up to the ankle are in this model normal and starburst galaxies. The escape model provides a good fit to $\ln(A)$ data; it predicts that the phase of the CR dipole varies strongly in the energy range between $1\times 10^{17}$ and $3\times 10^{18}$ eV, while our estimate for the dipole magnitude is consistent with observations.
