On determination of the cosmic ray flux using molecular hydrogen absorption lines

We outline a procedure for estimating the cosmic ray flux at remote locations where molecular hydrogen absorption lines have been detected. The method relies on several assumptions whose validity in the local Galactic ISM has been independently verified, so it might be useful for much less accessibl...
