Solar modulation effect

Aguilar et al., PRL 110, 1102 (2013) Accardo et al., PRL 113, 121101 (2014)

Antiprotons → Seems consistent with astrophysics only

Kappl et al., JCAP 09, 023 (2015)

N.B.: see also e- and e+ in Aguilar et al., PRL 113, 121102 (2014)

Positron fraction, e-, e+ and e-+e+ spectra used to test astrophysical and/or dark matter hypothesis

  • Contribution from local SNRs/pulsars?

→ e.g., Delahaye et al., A&A 524, A51 (2010)

  • Dark matter hypothesis?

→ e.g., Boudaud et al., A&A 575, 67 (2015)

  • 2. Recent results: possible interpretations

N.B.: Different diffusion coefficient in the disk and halo

[self-generated turbulence vs pre-existing turbulence,

  • r different damping mechanisms in different medium?]

Aloisio et al., A&A 583, A95 (2015)

Many others explanations:

  • Secondary production at source (for positrons), single or multiple local sources, ...
  • Reacceleration, spiral arm structure, time and spatial discretness...

  • Physics problem: motion in a turbulent field
  • Ansatz: diffusion equation

Unknown vx,y, unknown position in δBx,y Pitch angle µ=cos(v,B0) Taylor-Green-Kubo formula

→ Can only be solved in ideal situations

  • Quasi-Linear Theory (δB ≪B): QLT
  • 2nd order QLT: SOQLT
  • Non-linear guiding centre: NLGC

Numerical simulations Analytical calculation

  • Mean free path
  • Fokker-Planck coefficient
  • Equation of motion (Lorentz)

Reality: resonant wave-particle interaction with stochastic motion... turbulence model requires:

  • Energy spectrum (diff.eq. for wave!): W k-s
  • Geometry
  • Dynamical behaviour
  • Instabilities
  • Damped waved
  • Intermittency

Diffusion in MHD turbulence

  • Power-law or broken power-law (with cut-off at high energy)
  • No time-dependence in fluxes (except for highest energies)
