| Description | The interstellar antiproton calculations were reexamined in view of the recent progress in measurements of interstellar electrons and He(3) nuclei. It was found that the divergence between the predicted antiproton flux and the existing datum at very low energies is increased. The proposed nonuniform galactic disk (NUGD) model qualitatively explains the unexpectedly large flux of interstellar antiprotons. Some ambiguities existed in the prototype of the model. It was unclear what fraction of observed antiprotons is of local origin. Previously the value of cosmic ray escape pathlength was suggested with quite a large arbitrariness. |
