Australian Cosmic Ray Modulation Research
Australian research into variations of the cosmic ray flux arriving at the Earth has played a pivotal role for more than 50 years. The work has been largely led by the groups from the University of Tasmania and the Australian Antarctic Division and has involved the operation of neutron monitors and muon telescopes from many sites. In this paper the achievements of the Australian researchers are...
متن کاملTime Delays in Cosmic Ray Propagation
Cosmic Rays (CR) travel at speeds essentially indistinguishable from the speed of light. However whilst travelling through magnetic fields, both regular and turbulent, they are delayed behind the light since they are usually charged particles and their paths are not linear. Those delays can be so long that they are an impediment to correctly identifying sources which may be variable in time. Fu...
متن کاملSignificance of two types of high-speed solar wind streams in modulating cosmic ray intensity
One of the most dynamical interplanetary phenomena of solar terrestrial physics is definitely the passage of solar wind streams near the Earth environment. In this work, we have identified the two types of high-speed solar wind streams using the spacecraft data during high amplitude days. The behaviour of high-speed solar wind streams during high amplitude anisotropic wave trains is investigate...
متن کاملCosmic Ray Anisotropy and Solar Activity
In this paper an attempt is made to study the occurrence of a large number of high amplitude anisotropic wave train events in cosmic ray intensity during 1981-1994 and to identify a possible correlation with solar activity using the hourly neutron monitor data of Deep River station. The diurnal time of maximum for both HAE as well as for all days is found to significantly shift towards an earli...
متن کامل30TH INTERNATIONAL COSMIC RAY CONFERENCE Voyager observations of energetic particles near the solar wind termination shock
Voyager 1 is observing the energy spectra of anomalous cosmic ray H, He, and O in the heliosheath. The relative abundance of H/He is 20 at 1-1.5 MeV/nuc, indicating that H pickup ions are more efficiently accelerated than was modeled from observations at higher energies. Voyager 2 began observing upstream energetic ions from the shock in late 2004 at ∼75 AU, about 10 AU closer to the Sun than o...
