Origins of cosmic rays
DOI: 10.1063/1.3022382
Laymen are probably more aware of the spectacular recent discoveries in astrophysics than in any other science. Newspapers and magazines have conditioned their readers to accept the reality of quasars, pulsars, black holes, gravitational waves, 2.7‐K blackbody radiation, interstellar molecules, solar wind and ancient moon rocks, to name only a few currently fashionable topics.
