The Theory of Cosmic Ray Modulation - by Du Toit Strauss & Nicolas Eugene Engelbrecht (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The Theory of Cosmic Ray Modulation concretely lays out the underlying understanding of cosmic ray particle interactions, offering a comprehensive introduction to the underlying theory, observational data and practical applications, which have implications for various fields including high-energy astrophysics, space weather, and cosmogenic isotope studies. The book provides a solid theoretical foundation and explaining the in physical processes involved in cosmic ray modulation. It delves into the mathematical details with meticulous explanations and applies to a topics from the implications of cosmic rays in space-based anti-matter research to their role in studying solar variability over timescales and even planetary habitability. The Theory of Cosmic Ray Modulation not only provides a solid foundation for research but also offers wider perspectives on the impact of cosmic rays on our understanding of the universe. With its strong underlying theory and up-to-date coverage, this book is a must-read for anyone actively working in the field of cosmic rays or on fields influenced by charged particle physics.
