Scientific paper

The flux is calculated of cosmic rays (CRs) produced by a distribution of pulsars that are: (1) born with rapid rotation rates, (2) slow down as they evolve, and (3) produce energetic nuclei with a characteristic energy proportional to their rotation rates. It is found that, for energy independent escape from the disk of the galaxy, the predicted spectrum will be essentially what is observed between approx 10 to the 16th power to 10 to the 19 power eV if the slow down law as inferred for radio pulsars can be extrapolated to young pulsars with shorter periods.
