Positron flux at high energies is evaluated within the framework of the simple leaky box model (SLBM) and a dynamical model of multiple production of pions in high-energy proton-proton collisions. It is seen that, if the proton spectrum is modified a bit in accordance with the primary electron spectrum as proposed by Mauger and Ormes, the theoretical estimations tally nicely with the experimental measurements of the positron flux. This work highlights, once again, the role and merit of the simple leaky box model for galactic propagation.
