Cosmic-ray Modulation

Cosmic-Ray Modulation is the phenomenon wherein the intensity and energy spectrum of galactic cosmic rays are systematically altered as they propagate through the heliosphere due to interactions with the solar wind, magnetic fields, and transient solar ejecta, resulting in an inverse correlation between cosmic-ray flux and solar activity levels.
