There is a growing set of observational data demonstrating that cosmic rays exhibit small-scale anisotropies (5-30 deg) with amplitude deviations lying between 0.01-0.1 percent that of the average cosmic ray flux. A broad range of models have been proposed to explain these anisotropies ranging from finite-scale magnetic field structures to dark matter annihilation. The standard diffusion transport methods used in cosmic ray propagation do not capture the transport physics in a medium with finite-scale or coherent magnetic field structures. Here, we present a Monte Carlo transport method, applying it to a series of finite-scale magnetic field structures to determine the requirements of such fields in explaining the observed cosmic ray,small-scale anisotropies.
