至少从本世纪头十年维克多·f·赫斯（Viktor F. Hess）英勇的气球飞行开始，宇宙辐射就一直是一个活跃的研究领域。在早期，宇宙射线物理学意味着对电和磁的基本特性的研究。后来，在加速器建成之前，它是粒子物理学。再后来，它变成了天体物理学——研究低能量宇宙射线的银河系来源，日球层和银河系的磁场，以及超新星冲击的加速机制。今天，宇宙射线天体物理学涉及恒星和超新星的核天体物理学，超过地球加速器所能达到的能量的粒子物理学，微波和红外背景的宇宙学，化学演化和星际介质过程的银河系物理学，以及超高能量的未开发物理学。这本书是关于带电宇宙射线的。主要是来自银河系和银河系外的核。
Cosmic radiation has been an active field of study at least since the heroic balloon flights of Viktor F. Hess in the first decade of this century. In the earliest days, cosmic ray physics meant a study of the basic properties of electricity and magnetism. Later, it was particle physics before accelerators were built. Still later, it became astrophysics -- studying the Galactic sources of the lower energy cosmic rays, the magnetic fields in the heliosphere and the Galaxy, and the acceleration mechanisms in supernova shocks. Today, cosmic ray astrophysics touches on the nuclear astrophysics of stars and supernova, particle physics at energies above those achievable by terrestrial accelerators, the cosmology of the microwave and IR backgrounds, the Galactic physics of chemical evolution and interstellar medium processes, and unexplored physics at extremely high energies. This book deals with charged cosmic rays. Primarily nuclei, from Galactic and extra-Galactic sources.
