Updated Measurements of the Isotopic Composition of Interplanetary and Geomagnetically Trapped Anomalous Cosmic Rays

Abstract

Pure samples of anomalous cosmic rays are measured by SAMP EX, both at latitudes where the geomagnetic field acts as a particle rigidity filter, and in the radiation belt of trapped anomalous cosmic rays. We report updated measurements of the isotopic composition of anomalous cosmic ray N, 0, and Ne in these two regions, along with isotopic values measured over the poles, and compare our results with those found by previous investigators and with those measured in other samples of solar and galactic material.
