Cosmic-ray modulation and the anamalous component

Abstract

Advances in the theory and observation of cosmic ray modulation and in studies of the anomalous component in cosmic radiation are reviewed from reports that appeared in the open literature during the years 1979 to 1982. Entries, which are primarily the work of American researchers, are cited under the following categories: (1) microscopic diffusion theory; (2) global modulation theory; (3) anomalous component; and (4) general modulation observation.
