Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews of the first edition:

“… carefully crafted and well-written.” (Stefan Westerhoff, Columbia University, Physics Today, September 2004)

“This publication … is aimed at serious students of the subject. … Arranged in two parts, Stanev first describes the standard model of cosmic rays and the interactions that are important … . The second part describes the challenges of current cosmic ray research … . It is a ‘must read’ for those with a passion to find out more about the high energy universe.” (Roger Feasey, Journal of the Auckland Astronomical Society AAS, August, 2005)

“Todor Stanev … has distilled the essence of cosmic ray physics. It is a magnificent achievement and will be invaluable for workers in the field. It should also be available for consultation by researchers in related disciplines … there will also be a need to make use of excellent list of referenced material.” (Roger Clay, The Physicist, Vol. 41 (5), September/October, 2004)
