The secular variations of cosmic ray cutoff rigidities ,
نویسندگان
چکیده
Vertical rigidities of geomagnetic cutoff are obtained for world neutron monitor network with annual resolution for the period of 1950-2020 by the method of trajectory calculations with the model International Geomagnetic Reference Field. Results of the computations show the total decrease of the cut off rigidities in the majority points which is caused by a decrease of the total geomagnetic field during this period. The prognosis of planetary distribution of the cut off rigidities is made up to 2050.

Changes in cosmic ray cut-o rigidities due to secular variations of the geomagnetic ®eld
An analytical expression is derived for the cuto rigidity of cosmic rays arriving at a point in an arbitrary direction, when the main geomagnetic ®eld is approximated by that of an eccentric dipole. This expression is used to determine changes in geomagnetic cutos due to secular variation of the geomagnetic ®eld since 1835. Eects of westward drift of the quadrupole ®eld and decrease in the e...
متن کاملOn Cutoff Rigidities of Cosmic Rays
On employing International Reference Field (IGRF) model, vertical cutoff rigidities for the epoch 1995 are computed above several cosmic ray stations at different altitudes. Comparison of the results assuming the Earth’s body both as sphere and ellipsoid is worked out whilst results and effects are compared with the approach based on McIlwains L parameter.
متن کاملSpatial and temporal distribution of secondary cosmic-ray nucleon intensities and applications to in situ cosmogenic dating
Cosmogenic nuclide production rates depend critically on the spatio-temporal distribution of cosmic-ray nucleon fluxes. Since the 1950s, measurements of the altitude, latitude and solar modulation dependencies of secondary cosmic-ray fluxes have been obtained by numerous investigators. However, until recently there has been no attempt to thoroughly evaluate the large body of modern cosmic-ray l...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Variability of the Gamma Radiation from Earth’s Atmosphere during a Solar Cycle
The Solar Maximum Mission satellite’s Gamma Ray Spectrometer spent much of its 1980–1989 mission pointed at Earth, accumulating spectra of atmospheric albedo γ-rays. Its 28◦ orbit ensured that a range of geomagnetic latitudes was sampled. We measured the variation with time and cutoff rigidity of some key γ-ray lines which are diagnostic of the intensity of the Galactic cosmic radiation penetra...
متن کاملTransient Weakening of Earth's Magnetic Shield Probed by a Cosmic Ray Burst.
The GRAPES-3 tracking muon telescope in Ooty, India measures muon intensity at high cutoff rigidities (15-24 GV) along nine independent directions covering 2.3 sr. The arrival of a coronal mass ejection on 22 June 2015 18:40 UT had triggered a severe G4-class geomagnetic storm (storm). Starting 19:00 UT, the GRAPES-3 muon telescope recorded a 2 h high-energy (∼20 GeV) burst of galactic cosmic ...
