Modelling the effects of scattering parameters on particle-drift in the solar modulation of galactic cosmic rays
(Elsevier, 2015)
It is well known that particle drift motions are suppressed by diffusive scattering as established by direct numerical simulations. The effect of constant scattering on the drift velocities of charged particles has always ...
Is the highest cosmic-ray flux yet to come?
(Springer, 2014)
The recent 2009 solar-minimum period was characterized by a record-setting high
Galactic cosmic-ray flux observed at Earth. This, along with the unexpected low heliospheric
magnetic-field magnitude, caused this period ...
A study of the global heliospheric modulation of galactic carbon
(Elsevier, 2014)
Observations of galactic Carbon in the heliosphere provide a useful tool with which a comprehensive description of the global
modulation of cosmic rays both inside and outside off the solar wind termination shock (TS) can ...
The charge-sign dependent effect in the solar modulation of cosmic rays
(Elsevier, 2014)
The centennial anniversary of the discovery of cosmic rays was in 2012. Since this discovery considerable progress has been made on
several aspects related to galactic cosmic rays in the heliosphere. It is known that they ...
Where does the heliospheric modulation of galactic cosmic rays start?
(Elsevier, 2014)
The long outstanding question of where the heliospheric (solar) modulation of galactic cosmic rays actually begins, in terms of spatial
position, as well as at what high kinetic energy, can now be answered. Both answers ...
Solar modulation of cosmic rays
(Springer Nature, 2013)
This is an overview of the solar modulation of cosmic rays in the heliosphere. It is a
broad topic with numerous intriguing aspects so that a research framework has to be chosen
to concentrate on. The review focuses on ...
Cosmic rays in the inner heliosphere: insights from observations, theory and models
(Springer, 2011)
The global modulation of galactic cosmic rays in the inner heliosphere is determined by four major mechanisms: convection, diffusion, particle drifts (gradient, curvature and current sheet drifts), and adiabatic energy ...
Modulation of galactic protons in the heliosphere during the unusual solar minimum of 2006 to 2009
(Springer Verlag, 2014)
The last solar minimum activity period, and the consequent minimum modulation
conditions for cosmic rays, was unusual. The highest levels of galactic protons were
recorded at Earth in late 2009 in contrast to expectations. ...
