  • Descrição: The space weather impacts propagation of galactic cosmic rays (CRs) in the heliosphere as explained by the diffusion-convection mechanism which predicts that the variation in CR intensity should be anticorrelated with changes in solar wind velocity (V sub(SW)). Several unrelated solar phenomena, including periodic ones such as 27 d solar rotation, annual, 11 yr solar activity, 22 yr solar magnetic cycle etc., and transient ones, for example, Forbush decreases (FDs), and ground level enhancements generally caused by solar flares or coronal mass ejections also affect CR intensity on Earth. These solar phenomena make a quantitative study of dependence of CR intensity on V sub(SW) rather difficult. Here, the high statistics muon data of six years (2000-2005) from the large GRAPES-3 muon telescope have been used to study the correlation between V sub(SW) and CR intensity. Data gathered during these six years were used after minimizing the contribution of various unrelated solar phenomena outlined above. We observed a strong anticorrelation between the variations in Vsw and CR intensity at a significance of 19[sigma].
