Propagation of Solar and Galactic Cosmic Rays of Low Energies in Interplanetary Medium

Intercorrelated Satellite Observations Related to Solar Events

Abstract

The report summarizes the results of measurements of low-energy cosmic rays from Zond-3, Venus-2, Venus-3, and Venus-4 space probes for the period from 1965 to 1967 as well as preliminary results from Venus-5 and Venus-6 space probes. It has been shown on the basis of solar cosmic ray bursts and Forbush-decreases of galactic cosmic rays that the solar cosmic rays propagate rapidly from the ejection region near the sun along the beam of magnetic lines of force emerging from the active region on the sun and slowly when they are retarded in the region of the field knee created by the shock wave from the burst and move together with the knee at the velocity of the wave. It has been shown that the observed retardation of shock waves from the bursts results in disappearance of Forbush-decreases and accumulation of solar cosmic rays at distances of ~ 2 AU from the sun. It has been shown on the basis of the observations of variations in galactic cosmic rays that the variation parameters (amplitude, steepness of the fall) are determined by the dynamics, latitude, and development phase of active regions.
