Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

An analysis is performed of a reduction in the intensity of cosmic rays during the minimum of solar cycle 24 in April–May, 2019. It is assumed that the observed slow decline and recovery of the cosmic ray flux consisted of a series of small Forbush decreases.
