One new theoretical model for the energy spectrum of cosmic rays
Description
The energy distribution of the primary cosmic rays (excluding the effects of propagation) is derived on the basis of a simple theoretical model of a random walk in random electromagnetic fields. It is expected that this mechanism is universal in the sense that it can be embedded in various astrophysical acceleration processes. (author)
