A new conceptual approach for examining the origin of cosmic rays is developed by considering the characteristics of particle trajectory distributions in four-dimensional Euclidean space-time. Transformation of an isotropic distribution into a velocity distribution in ordinary three-dimensional space results in a spatially isotropic flux of highly relativistic particles. This particle flux exhibits a power-law energy spectrum that decreases with increasing energy approximately inversely as the square of the energy and peaks at much lower energies. This model also provides additional results resembling the observed characteristics of cosmic radiation.
