Description
Cosmic ray (CR) observatories have detected characters of CR anisotropy across different energy ranges including contributions from both galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) and extragalactic cosmic rays (EGCRs). We obtain simulation CR anisotropy results by back-tracing test particles in turbulent magnetic fields. For GCRs, we discuss the anisotropy dipole flip happened between about 10 TeV to several hundred TeV. For EGCRs, we show our theoretical prediction for the EGCR anisotropy in the galactic magnetic field model (GMF). In the 'knee' region, we suggest the anisotropy can be a probe for distinguishing the GCRs and EGCRs.
