文摘The spatial-dependent propagation(SDP)model has been demonstrated to account for the spectral hardening of both primary and secondary Cosmic Rays(CRs)nuclei above about 200 GV.In this work,we further apply this model to the latest AMS-02 observations of electrons and positrons.To investigate the effect of different propagation models,both homogeneous diffusion and SDP are compared.In contrast to the homogeneous diffusion,SDP brings about harder spectra of background CRs and thus enhances background electron and positron fluxes above tens of GeV.Thereby,the SDP model could better reproduce both electron and positron energy spectra when introducing a local pulsar.The influence of the background source distribution is also investigated,where both axisymmetric and spiral distributions are compared.We find that considering the spiral distribution leads to a larger contribution of positrons for energies above multi-GeV than the axisymmetric distribution.In the SDP model,when including a spiral distribution of sources,the all-electron spectrum above TeV energies is thus naturally described.In the meantime,the estimated anisotropies in the all-electrons spectrum show that in contrary to the homogeneous diffusion model,the anisotropy under SDP is well below the observational limits set by the Fermi-LAT experiment,even when considering a local source.
