Relationship between Cosmic rays’ Modulation and Solar Wind Parameters in Solar Cycle 24 and Ascending Phase of Cycle 25

Abstract

The solar cycle 24 behaviour of several heliospheric parameters and activity indices is contrasted with the persistent changes in cosmic rays throughout time. Previous to this, a series of was used for the geomagnetic indices Ap, Kp, and aa, solar flare group counts, cosmic ray strengths during solar cycles 22, 23, and 24, and sunspot counts. We found the interrelationships between solarheliospheric factors such the interplanetary magnetic field, cosmic-ray modulation, the present solar cycle, which is marked by several rare and powerful solar occurrences, and the heliospheric current sheet tilt, using this model. We show that these parameters may be used together to replicate most of the modulation potential fluctuations that occur throughout this cycle. Observed variations in cosmic ray fluxes every eleven years are mostly due to variations in solar activity, which also occur every eleven years. In addition to this, every about eleven years, the heliosphere and solar polar regions experience a reversal of the orientations of their magnetic fields. Also, this adds features to the acknowledged ~11-cycle and causes an extra 22-year solar magnetic cycle to exist. Looking at the correlations, time delays, and temporal patterns of cosmic-ray intensity versus various parameters from 1996 to 2022, the cycle's distinctive traits are discovered to be strange. Intervals for correlational analysis and obtained hysteresis curves from cycle pro are also included.
