Abstract:We study features of the three dimensional (3D) solar anisotropy of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) for 1965-2014 (almost 5 solar cycles 20-24). We analyze the 27-day variations of the two dimensional (2D) GCR anisotropy in the ecliptic plane, and the north-south anisotropy normal to the ecliptic plane. We study the dependence of the 27-day variation of the 3D GCR anisotropy on the solar cycle and solar magnetic cycle. We demonstrate that the 27-day variations of the GCR intensity and anisotropy can be used as an i… Show more
