Offer Description

Cosmic rays enter the heliosphere from the interstellar medium and interact with the magnetic field of the heliosphere. The result is a change in the energy spectrum of cosmic rays called cosmic ray modulation in the heliosphere. The work will be focused on the development of 2D and 3D models of CR modulation in the heliosphere with modification of the heliospheric magnetic field in polar regions and particle drift on large-scale magnetic field structures. The models will also include the dependence of the solar wind speed on heliolatitude and modulation in the heliosheath region. Particle acceleration on the termination shock wave of the heliosphere will also be implemented in the models. The results of the models will be compared mainly with the AMS-02 and Ulysses experiments.
