Multiphase ISM simulations show PeV cosmic-ray diffusion coefficients reach 10^30 cm^2 s^-1, with perpendicular transport boosted at thermal phase boundaries while overall transport is controlled by trans-Alfvenic warm and unstable gas.
Oblique shocks in massive star clusters accelerate cosmic rays to multi-PeV energies, reproducing the LHAASO-observed knee as a sequence of rigidity-dependent cutoffs from combined supernova and wind shocks.
A two-component Galactic source model with supernova remnants below 100 TeV and microquasars above, using charge-dependent cutoffs, accounts for cosmic-ray spectra, composition, and the all-particle spectrum up to PeV energies while ruling out nuclei-dependent cutoffs.

Oblique Shocks at Supernova Remnants in Massive Star Clusters: A Model for the Cosmic-Ray Knee Observed by LHAASO
Oblique shocks in massive star clusters accelerate cosmic rays to multi-PeV energies, reproducing the LHAASO-observed knee as a sequence of rigidity-dependent cutoffs from combined supernova and wind shocks.

Two kinds of Galactic source populations could explain the cosmic-ray observation up to the "knee" region
A two-component Galactic source model with supernova remnants below 100 TeV and microquasars above, using charge-dependent cutoffs, accounts for cosmic-ray spectra, composition, and the all-particle spectrum up to PeV energies while ruling out nuclei-dependent cutoffs.
