LATITUDE DEPENDENCE OF THE DAILY VARIATION OF COSMIC RAY INTENSITY

Journal Article · · Proc. Indian Acad. Sci., Sec. A
OSTI ID:4120667
The yearly average daily variation curves for the period July 1957 to June 1958 for data from neutron monitors operated at various places during the I.G.Y. are harmonicaIly analyzed. Data for different latitude belts are grouped together. The amplitude and hour of maximum of the first harmonic show a marked latitude dependence. It is found, however, that stations in the same latitude belt show large differences in amplitudes. Possible reasons for such differences are discussed. It is concluded that these differences are due to extraneous unspecified factors and that the published data are not suitable for analysis without further scrutiny. (auth)
