| Description | A preliminary report is presented on detailed observations of low energy approximately (60 MeV/nucleon) galactic cosmic rays made during the recent period of solar maximum. For this particular cycle a significant time lag between intensity changes in the low energy and high energy components was observed. There are a number of possible explanations of this hysteresis effect. In the simplest form these include either changes in the form of the magnetic field power spectrum or changes in the size of the effective modulating region, or both. |
