Cosmic Ray Diurnal Anisotropy Related To Solar Activity, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra Jan 2005

Cosmic Ray Diurnal Anisotropy Related To Solar Activity, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra

Turkish Journal of Physics

The occurrence of a large number high amplitude event (HAE) of cosmic ray diurnal anisotropy during 1981--1994 has been examined as a function of solar activity. The high amplitude days with the time of maximum in the corotational/azimuthal direction do not indicate any significant correlation with solar activity. Our observations suggest that the direction of the anisotropy of HAE events contribute significantly to the long-term behaviour of the diurnal anisotropy. The occurrence of HAE is dominant during sunspot maximum as well as sunspot minimum.


Influence Of Solar Activity On Low Amplitude Cosmic Ray Diurnal Anisotropy, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra Jan 2005

Influence Of Solar Activity On Low Amplitude Cosmic Ray Diurnal Anisotropy, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra

Turkish Journal of Physics

A detailed study has been conducted on the occurrence of a large number of low amplitude events (LAE) of cosmic ray (CR) diurnal anisotropy during 1981--1994 as a function of solar activity. The low amplitude days with the time of maximum in the corotational/azimuthal direction do not indicate any significant correlation with solar activity. Our observations suggest that the direction of the anisotropy of LAE events contribute significantly to the long-term behaviour of the CR diurnal anisotropy. The occurrence of LAE is dominant during solar activity minimum years.

Features Of Daily Variation In Cosmic Ray Intensity During High/Low Amplitude Events, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra

Turkish Journal of Physics

A detailed study has been conducted on the long-term changes in the diurnal, semi-diurnal and tri-diurnal anisotropy of cosmic rays in terms of the high/low amplitude anisotropic wave train events (HAE/LAE) during the period 1981--94 using the neutron monitor data from the Deep River neutron monitoring station. In all, 38 HAE and 28 LAE cases have been studied. An inter-comparison of the first three harmonics during these events has been made so as to understand the basic reason causing the occurrence of these types of events. It has been observed that the phase of diurnal anisotropy shifts towards earlier hours …


Large Amplitude Wave Trains In Cosmic Ray Intensity, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra Jan 2004

Large Amplitude Wave Trains In Cosmic Ray Intensity, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra

Turkish Journal of Physics

Using ground-based neutron monitor data of Deep River, the high amplitude anisotropic wave train events (HAE) in cosmic ray intensity have been investigated during the period 1991--1994. It has been observed that the phase of diurnal anisotropy for majority of HAE cases remains in the same co-rotational direction, whereas for some HAE cases the phase of diurnal anisotropy has shifted to later hours. For the majority of HAE cases the amplitude of semi-diurnal anisotropy remains statistically the same, whereas the phase of semi-diurnal anisotropy for all HAE cases has shifted to later hours. Furthermore, for tri-diurnal anisotropy the phase shifts …


Exceptionaly Low Amplitude Anisotropic Wave Train Events In Cosmic Ray Intensity, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra Jan 2004

Exceptionaly Low Amplitude Anisotropic Wave Train Events In Cosmic Ray Intensity, Rajesh K. Mishra, Rekha Agarwal Mishra

Turkish Journal of Physics

The unusually low amplitude anisotropic wave train events (LAEs) in cosmic ray intensity using the ground-based Deep River neutron monitor data has been studied during the period 1991--94. It has been observed that the phase of the diurnal anisotropy for majority of the LAE events remains in the corotational direction. However, for some of the LAE events the phase of the diurnal anisotropy shifts towards earlier hours. On the other hand, the amplitude of the semi-diurnal anisotropy remains statistically the same whereas, phase shift towards later hours; similar trend has also been found in case of tri-diurnal anisotropy. The interplanetary …
