Homework
1.Assume free propagation of the cosmic rays
(CR) across the Galactic disk (d=500 pc). Estimate the residence time of the CRs
in the disk.
2.Assume diffusive propagation of CRs at 10 GeV
with diffusion coefficient D(10 GeV) =5x1027
cm2/s. Estimate: a) mean free path;
b) residence time in the disk; c) anisotropy (assume dipole type of anisotropy
and apply Fick’s low).
3. Find energy dependences of the above (a-c)
measures for the power-law turbulence spectra with indices = 1; 1.7; 2.
