The role of photon fields of local sources in the formation of the cosmic rays energy spectrum
Abstract
The influence of photon fields of local sources (LS) on the formation of the cosmic ray (CR) energy spectrum (E0) is considered. A model for the formation of irregularities in the CR spectrum, based on the local source model, is proposed. It is shown that the CR spectrum can be formed as a sum of partial spectra formed near local CR sources during the passage of primary cosmic radiation (PCR) through the photon fields of the sources. Local sources can be the most active stars of various types of variability in the stellar population, - from dwarfs to hypergiants. Studies have shown that the so-called "bump" near E0 = 100 PeV is formed in the photon fields of Mira-type variable stars, which are typically multiple stellar systems, consisting of a red giant and a white dwarf.
