Excerpt: Cosmic rays are energetic charged subatomic particles, originating from outer space. They may produce secondary particles that penetrate the Earth's atmosphere and surface.The term ray is historical as cosmic rays were thought to be electromagnetic radiation. Most primary cosmic rays (those which impact the atmosphere from deep space) are composed of familiar stable particles that normally occur on Earth, such as protons, atomic nuclei, or electrons. However, a very small fraction are stable particles of antimatter, such as positrons or antiprotons, and the nature of this remaining fraction is an area of active research. About 89% of cosmic rays are simple protons or hydrogen nuclei, 10% are helium nuclei or alpha particles, and 1% are heavier elements. These nuclei constitute 99% of the cosmic rays. Solitary electrons (much like beta particles, although their ultimate source is unknown) constitute much of the remaining 1%. The variety of particle energies reflects the wide variety of sources. The origins of these particles range from processes on the Sun (and presumably other stars as well), to as yet unknown physical mechanisms in the farthest reaches of the visible universe. Cosmic rays can have energies of over 10 eV, far higher than the 10 to 10 eV that Terrestrial particle accelerators can produce...
