Galactic cosmic ray hydrogen and heliumThis paper provides a summary of the spectra and propagation of the quartet of isotopes of hydrogen and helium which occur in arriving cosmic radiation. The unraveling of modulation effects is addressed, and the calculation of the local interstellar spectrum from a model of interstellar propagation is discussed. Two models for propagation are considered, one having an energy-independent mean pathlength and the other having an energy-dependent one.
