Description
After a brief review of the standard diffusion approach to the propagation of cosmic rays (CR), I discuss as alternative method the calculation of individual CR trajectories. The results obtained with this approach suggest that CR propagate strongly anisotropic, and that the antimatter fluxes observed are dominated by a single local source. Finally, I discuss
different approaches to predict antiproton production and their theoretical uncertainties.
