Abstract:Observations of light isotopes in cosmic rays provide information on their origin and propagation in the Galaxy. Using the data collected by AMS-01 in the STS-91 space mission, we compare the measurements on 1 H, 2 H, 3 He and 4 He with calculations for interstellar propagation and solar modulation. These data are described well by a diffusive-reacceleration model with parameters that match the B/C ratio data. Close comparisons are made within the astrophysical constraints provided by the B/C data and within t… Show more
