Derivation of antiproton-proton flux ratio from the closed galaxy model

The antiproton-proton flux ratio has been estimated from the closed galaxy model of Peters and Westergaard by using the latest primary nucleon spectrum and inclusive reaction accelerator results. The derived flux ratio is about three times higher than those expected from the leaky box model. The results have been compared with the previous estimates by different authors.     

Application of a coupled approach for the solution of nonlinear singular initial value problems of Lane–Emden type

Lane–Emden type equations have been interesting since long time due to their wide applications in mathematical physics and astrophysics. In this paper, a coupled approach has been proposed for the solution of nonlinear singular value problems of Lane–Emden type.
