Scientific paper

The flux of anomalous cosmic rays (ACRs) in the heliosheath is formed by the combined effects of particle injection, acceleration, and propagation. Modeling acceleration and propagation we can obtain constraints for the injection required to produce the ACR flux observed by the two Voyager spacecraft. We perform 2-dimensional numerical simulations, applying a time-reversed backward method. The blunt termination shock (TS) is represented by an offset circle. Comparing simulation results with Voyager observations and their implications will be discussed in context with global energetic neutral atom (ENA) maps obtained by IBEX.
