INCREASES IN SCR ENERGETIC PROTON FLUXES ON EARTH AND THEIR RELATION TO SOLAR SOURCES
Journal Title: Solar-Terrestrial Physics - Year 2020, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Logachev catalog data for solar cycle 23 has been used to study the dependence of measured increases in solar cosmic rays (SCRs) on solar perturbations. The efficiency of recording the SCR increases, driven by proton acceleration in the corona, on Earth and in its vicinity is shown to depend on power of a solar flare that created a shock wave and on position of the flare on the solar disk. As the particle flux moves along the heliolongitude away from the parent flare, the acceleration efficiency decreases, i.e. the maximum energy of the accelerated particles and their intensity at equal energy decrease. As a result, at a certain distance along a heliolongitude from the parent solar flare, the solar proton flux intensity decreases to the galactic background, and there is no SCR increase detected.

NATURAL ELECTROMAGNETIC OSCILLATIONS IN 4–12 HZ FREQUENCY RANGE AS MEASURED BY SWARM SATELLITES AND CARISMA MAGNETOMETER NETWORK
We examine magnetic field variations at 4–12 Hz frequencies in the upper ionosphere and on Earth. The ground response to the coherent oscillations at two SWARM satellites near and above the high frequency boundary of the...
MORPHOLOGY AND DIAGNOSTIC POTENTIAL OF THE IONOSPHERIC ALFVÉN RESONATOR
The layering of the ionosphere leads to the formation of resonators and waveguides of various kinds. One of the most well-known is the ionospheric Alfvén resonator (IAR) whose radiation can be observed both on Earth’s su...
METEOR TRAIL DRIFT RESEARCH BASED ON BASELINE OBSERVATIONS
We analyze the results of a rare long-lived quasisymmetric ellipsoidal-annular meteor trail recorded on November 18, 2017 by two optical all-sky cameras, spaced at a distance of 150 km. The analysis is based on astrometr...
DIAMAGNETIC PLASMOIDS AS PART OF DIAMAGNETIC STRUCTURES OF THE SLOW SOLAR WIND AND THEIR IMPACT ON EARTH’S MAGNETOSPHERE
We have shown that diamagnetic structures (DSs), which form the basis of the slow quasi-stationary solar wind (SW), are observed in Earth’s orbit as a sequence of DSs of various scales. The analysis of this phenomenon in...
