Galactic cosmic rays, registered by ground-based neutron monitors, are strongly affected by the heliosphere, i.e., being subjected to solar modulation. Cosmic ray variations are closely related to different solar activity indices and IMF parameters. The longitudinal inhomogeneity of the general solar magnetic field as a star and the manifestation of this inhomogeneity in the magnetic field are considered in the work. It has been established that the longitudinal inhomogeneity of this field, with the dipole distribution of polarities along heliolongitude, mainly contributes to 27-day modulation of galactic cosmic rays. 相似文献

The cosmic ray flux through the atmosphere at different levels of solar activity is simulated. The Geant program package has been used to determine the atmospheric zones where the maximal contrast of the released ray energy originates between the periods of solar minimum and maximum. The geographic coordinates and altitudes of these zones have been calculated. The results can be used to search for statistical correlations between the solar activity variations and dynamics of atmospheric transparency. 相似文献

We study the cosmic ray modulation during different solar cycles and polarity states of the heliosphere. We determine (a) time lag between the cosmic ray intensity and the solar variability, (b) area of the cosmic ray intensity versus solar activity modulation loops and (c) dependence of the cosmic ray intensity on the solar variability, during different solar activity cycles and polarity states of the heliosphere. We find differences during odd and even solar cycles. Differences during positive and negative polarity periods are also found. Consequences and implications of the observed differences during (i) odd and even cycles, and (ii) opposite polarity states (A<0 and A>0) are discussed in the light of the modulation models, including drift effects. 相似文献

Cosmic rays are considered as a possible link coupling solar activity to atmospheric processes. The most intense types of cosmic ray flux modulations are briefly described as a source of variability in the ion production rate in the atmosphere. The ions may affect atmospheric phenomena through (1) charge-dependent chemical reactions, (2) charge-dependent droplet and ice crystal formation, and (3) as their influence on the current flowing in the global electric circuit. However, the latter two have still to be proved as the causes of correlations between changes in the large-scale meteorological parameters and cosmic ray flux variations. 相似文献

Modulation of galactic cosmic rays in cycles 19–23 of solar activity has been determined based on observations of their long-term variations on the ground and in the near-Earth space. The extreme values of long-term variations in cosmic rays, obtained from the data of continuous cosmic radiation monitoring on the ground and in the near-Earth space in the last five solar cycles, have been analyzed. The results are compared with the extrema in the characteristics of solar magnetic fields and the sunspot numbers in these cycles. The similarities and differences in cosmic ray modulation between different cycles are discussed. 相似文献

The distinguished directions, dependent on the solar wind velocity and IMF line position, exist in the interplanetary space, which results in the nonuniform distribution of phases and the amplitude-phase interrelation of the first cosmic ray anisotropy harmonic. The characteristics of the first anisotropy harmonics, determined for each hour using the global survey method based on the worldwide neutron monitor network from 1957 to 2010, were used to study long-period variations in the cosmic ray anisotropy. The longitudinal distributions of the cosmic ray vector anisotropy and the interrelation between the anisotropy amplitude and phase have been obtained for each year in this time interval. The results evidently demonstrate the anisotropy variations caused by the solar magnetic and activity cycles. The anisotropy distributions at different solar wind velocities have also been studied. Periods with a specific cosmic ray anisotropy behavior are distinguished and discussed. The obtained cosmic ray anisotropy variations agree with the convection-diffusion anisotropy model. 相似文献

The seasonal effect of the daily variations in the cosmic ray intensity on the conductivity of the Earth-high-conductivity layer column has been analyzed based on the observations of the cosmic ray intensity, atmospheric current, and electric field vertical component, performed from summer 2006 to spring 2007 at Apatity station. The method for correcting the measurements of the atmospheric current and electric field vertical component under complex tropospheric conditions by numerically simulating the spatial structure of the current and field lines in the observation region has been proposed. It has been indicated that cosmic rays are the main source of ions in the winter polar lower atmosphere and are responsible for the type of daily variations in the conductivity, whereas the daily variations in the atmospheric current more depends on the conductivity rather than on the vertical electric field. 相似文献

Recent years allowed us to study long-term variations in the cosmic ray (CR) intensity at an unusually deep solar activity (SA) minimum between cycles 23 and 24 and during the SA growth phase in cycle 24, which was the cycle when SA was the lowest for the epoch of regular ground-based CR observations since 1951. The intensity maximum, the value of which depends on the particle energy, was observed in CR variations during the period of an unusually prolonged SA minimum: the CR density during the aformentioned period (2009) is higher than this density at previous CR maxima in cycles 19–23 for low-energy particles (observed on spacecraft and in the stratosphere) and medium-energy particles (observed with neutron monitors). After 2009 CR modulation at the SA growth phase was much weaker over three years (2010–2012) than during the corresponding SA growth periods in the previous cycles. The possible causes of this anomaly in CR variations, which are related to the CR residual modulation value at a minimum between cycles 23 and 24 and to variations in SA characteristics during this period, were examined. The contribution of different solar magnetic field characteristics and indices, taking into account sporadic solar activity, has been estimated. 相似文献

The effect of solar and galactic cosmic ray variations on the duration of elementary synoptic processes (ESPs) in the Atlantic-European sector of the Northern Hemisphere has been studied. It has been found that solar cosmic ray (SCR) bursts result in an increase in the duration of ESPs, which belong to the western and meridional forms of atmospheric circulation. Forbush decreases in galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) are accompanied by an increase in the duration of ESPs, which belong to the meridional atmospheric circulation form, and in a decrease in the duration of ESPs, which are related to the western and eastern circulation forms. It has been assumed that the observed variations in the ESP duration are caused by the effect of short-period cosmic ray variations on the intensity of cyclonic processes at middle and high latitudes, namely, the regeneration of cyclones near the southeastern coast of Greenland after SCR bursts and the development of blocking anticyclones over the northeastern Atlantic, Europe, and Scandinavia during GCR Forbush decreases. 相似文献

The cause of the correlation of low cloud cover with the sunspot cycle, and the associated cosmic ray intensity, is still the subject of controversy. Insofar as ‘clouds’ come in different types with, doubtless, different sensitivities to the cloud condensation nuclei (charged or otherwise) it is useful to search for differences in the correlation between cloud types. Here, we examine the major cloud components: stratiform and cumuliform, the latter with its much higher upthrust velocities being expected to be less efficient as cosmic ray induced cloud generation. No difference is found between the two types of cloud, in the sense that there is no dependence on the fraction of cloud of stratiform type for the various parameters studied. This result is true over the Globe as a whole and as a function of cosmic ray cutoff rigidity. Once more there is no support for the cosmic ray hypothesis for cloud modulation. There is no obvious implication for the alternative hypotheses of solar irradiance modulation, but this is probably still the more likely. 相似文献

Based on observations of long-term variations in galactic cosmic rays (CRs) on Earth and in the near-Earth space, we have
determined, using our own semiempirical model, modulation of galactic CRs during solar cycles 19–23. The modulation model
relates CR variations to the characteristics of the solar magnetic field obtained for the surface of the solar wind source
at distances of 2.50 and 3.25 solar radii. The main focus is CR behavior at the minimums of cycles 19–23 and specific features
of CR modulation at a prolonged (as compared to previous cycles) minimum of cycle 23, which is still ongoing. CR modulation
at minimums related to a change in the solar field dipole component during this period of the cycle has been considered. It
is indicated that the long-term variations in CRs are better described if the last two years (2007 and 2008) of cycle 23 with
anomalously low solar activity (SA) are included in the model. The role and value of the contribution of the cyclic variations
in each index used in the proposed CR modulation model to the observed CR modulation have been estimated. 相似文献

An analytical expression is derived for the cutoff rigidity of cosmic rays arriving at a point in an arbitrary direction, when the main geomagnetic field is approximated by that of an eccentric dipole. This expression is used to determine changes in geomagnetic cutoffs due to secular variation of the geomagnetic field since 1835. Effects of westward drift of the quadrupole field and decrease in the effective dipole moment are seen in the isorigidity contours. On account of the immense computer time required to determine the cutoff rigidities more accurately using the particle trajectory tracing technique, the present formulation may be useful in estimating the transmission factor of the geomagnetic field in cosmic ray studies, modulation of cosmogenic isotope production by geomagnetic secular variation, and the contribution of geomagnetic field variation to long term changes in climate through cosmic ray related modulation of the current flow in the global electric circuit. 相似文献

A joint analysis of paleodata on variations in cosmic ray fluxes, solar activity, geomagnetic field, and climate during the period from ～10000 to ～100000 years ago has been performed. Data on the time variations in the concentration of 14C and 10Be cosmogenic isotopes, which are generated in the Earth’s atmosphere under the action of cosmic ray fluxes modulated by solar activity and geomagnetic field variations, were used to detect variations in solar activity and the geomagnetic dipole. Information about climate changes has been obtained mainly from variations in the concentration of stable isotopes in the natural archives. A performed analysis indicates that the variations in cosmic ray fluxes under the action of variations in the geomagnetic field and solar activity are apparently one of the most effective natural factors of long-term climate changeability on a large time scale. 相似文献

Long-term trends in the tropospheric cosmic ray induced ionization on the multi-millennial time scale are studied using the newly released paleomagnetic reconstruction models. Spatial and temporal variations of the tropospheric ionization has been computed using the CRAC:CRII model and applying the paleomagnetic CALS7k.2 reconstruction. It has been shown that long-term variations of the tropospheric ionization are not spatially homogeneous, and they are defined not only by solar (i.e., covariant with solar irradiance) changes but also by the geomagnetic field. The dominance of the two effects is geographically separated, which makes it possible to distinguish between direct and indirect solar–terrestrial climate effects. Possible climate applications are considered. 相似文献

The solar wind modulates the flux of galactic cosmic rays impinging on Earth inversely with solar activity. Cosmic ray ionisation is the major source of air's electrical conductivity over the oceans and well above the continents. Differential solar modulation of the cosmic ray energy spectrum modifies the cosmic ray ionisation at different latitudes, varying the total atmospheric columnar conductance. This redistributes current flow in the global atmospheric electrical circuit, including the local vertical current density and the related surface potential gradient. Surface vertical current density and potential gradient measurements made independently at Lerwick Observatory, Shetland, from 1978 to 1985 are compared with modelled changes in cosmic ray ionisation arising from solar activity changes. Both the lower troposphere atmospheric electricity quantities are significantly increased at cosmic ray maximum (solar minimum), with a proportional change greater than that of the cosmic ray change. 相似文献

A method has been proposed for detecting hidden periodicities in nonstationary finite time series with strong noise. The successive
application of the spectral singular expansion and wavelet transform makes it possible to calculate the energy of short signals
with an arbitrary form against a suppressing noise back-ground, the amplitude of which is several times as large as that of
a useful signal. This method has been used to identify variations in the galactic cosmic ray (GCR) flux related to IMF disturbances
due to the earthward propagation of solar magnetic clouds in the heliosphere. 相似文献
