Abstract
The spectra of high-energy protons and nuclei accelerated by supernova remnant shocks are calculated taking into account magnetic field amplification and Alfvenic drift for different types of SNRs during their evolution. The overall energy spectrum and elemental composition of cosmic rays after propagation through the Galaxy are found.
