Ground-based Observations of Temporal Variation of Cosmic Ray Spectrum during Forbush Decreases
W. Mitthumsiri, D. Ruffolo, K. Munakata +29
Observations of temporary Forbush decreases (FDs) in the Galactic cosmic ray (GCR) flux due to passage of solar storms are useful for space weather studies and alerts. Here we intr…

Cosmic ray north-south anisotropy: rigidity spectrum and solar cycle variations observed by ground-based muon detectors
M. Kozai, Y. Hayashi, K. Fujii +9
The north-south (NS) anisotropy of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) is dominated by a diamagnetic drift flow of GCRs in the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), allowing us to derive ke…

Global analysis of the extended cosmic-ray decreases observed with world-wide networks of neutron monitors and muon detectors; temporal variation of the rigidity spectrum and its implication
K. Munakata, Y. Hayashi, M. Kozai +20
This paper presents the global analysis of two extended decreases of the galactic cosmic ray intensity observed by world-wide networks of ground-based detectors in 2012. This analy…
