Mass-to-charge ratio

  • M. Aguilar et al., PRL, 115(21):211101, (2015).
  • C/He and O/He ratios are independent of R

AMS-02 Collaboration, http://www.ams02.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Final.pdf. (2016).

assumption

  • mass-to-charge dependence of

injection

  • power law exponent:

q(M) = 4 1 − M −2

  • shock strength decreases with

time

  • if He2+ is injected more readily

at earlier times

harder integrated spectra

◮ fractions of different species can probe properties of CR accelerators
