Abstract ID: 626
Title: A Galactic cosmic-ray database
Authors: A.W. Strong, I.V. Moskalenko
Session: OG.1.1: Direct measurements on primary cosmic rays
Abstract:
Despite 100 years of cosmic-ray measurements there seems to have been no
attempt (known to us) to collect these data systematically for use by the
CR community.
The result is that everyone makes their own collection as required, a big
duplication of effort, and error-prone.
Therefore we have started a project to place published Galactic CR data in
a database available online.
It currently addresses energies up to 100 TeV, including elemental
spectra, secondary/primary nuclei ratios, antiprotons and positrons.
It is updated regularly as data appears in the literature. Where necessary
data is obtained from the authors (e.g. when papers contain plots but no
tables). It is supported by access software.
The community is encouraged to participate by providing data, pointing out
errors or omissions, and suggestions for improvements.
It is available at www.mpe.mpg.de/~aws/propagate.html and hosted by the
GALPROP website galprop.stanford.edu.

Other (very) old galprop-related material:
A continuing program of modelling cosmic-ray propagation in the Galaxy
and comparison with all kinds of observational data, with special emphasis on gamma rays. This site provides material related to this project including publications, programs and datasets.
This program is called galprop .
Originally work was concentrated on a diffusive model in 3D (R,z,p) with full momentum dependence. Nuclei and electrons are computed for different halo sizes, using a numerical solution of the diffusion equation. The observed distribution of gas in the Galaxy is used, and the interstellar radiation field has been recomputed using recent information from e.g. IRAS, COBE.
Observational data constraining the model are B/C ratio, 10Be/Be, the directly measured electron spectrum, diffuse Galactic gamma rays, and non-thermal radio.
From 1997-2000 the code was written in fortran90 and was extended to include
reacceleration convection secondary positron and electron production a full pion-decay gamma ray calculation inverse Compton on anisotropic radiation fields
bremsstrahlung on neutral and ionized gas antiprotons
