Cosmic Ray Ionization of Low-Excitation Lines in Active Galactic Nuclei and Starburst Galaxies
High CR ionization rates (above 10^-13 s^-1) in AGN and starburst models produce enhanced low-ionization emission that matches observations without super-solar metallicities and suggests revised BPT diagram boundaries.
