SOLAR RADIO BURSTS AND COSMIC RAYS
Journal Article

· Planetary Space Sci.
An investigation is made of the hypothesis that fast drift (Type III) solar radio bursts are generated by the emission of solar particles with velocities approaching those of cosmic rays. An examimation of cosmic ray intensity and solar radio data over the two-year period from October 1956 to September 1958 shows no correlation between these fast drift bursts and cosmic ray increases on the earth. Solar flares, with which fast drift bursts are associated, also appear to be unrelated to cosmic ray increases. On the other hand there are a number of cases of increases in low energy cosmic ray particles, recorded by equipment in satellites and balloons, which are probably related to outbursts of solar continuum (Type IV) radiation. Forbush type decreases in cosmic ray intensity, and accompanying magnetic storms, are regularly preceded by slow drift (Type II) radio bursts. (auth)
