SPACEU SYMPOSIUM:

NOUFEL D. MAALAL

We use anisotropy data for 4 TeV cosmic rays to study pitch-angle focusing and diffusion due to the interstellar magnetic field/turbulence. We infer the pitch-angle distribution (PAD) in the local interstellar medium (LISM). The pitch-angle diffusion coefficient is asymmetric, suggesting magnetic focusing. A model with these effects fits the PAD.
