abstract = "The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between
CR (Cosmic Ray) intensity and solar, interplanetary and
terrestrial parameters. The hysteresis loops of (CR) versus those
of several solar parameters showed narrow loops in even cycles 20,
22 and broad loops in odd cycles 19, 21, as also in the recent odd
cycle 23. Hysteresis plots for CR versus interplanetary number
density N and speed V were erratic and uncertain (broad and
narrow, all mixed up). Plots of CR versus Interplanetary magnetic
field (IMF) B seemed to be narrow for even as well as odd cycles.
Hysteresis loops between CR and other interplanetary parameters
were not clear-cut. The same was true for terrestrial parameters.
During sunspot maximum years 20002003 of cycle 23, there is a
double peak structure in all parameters. Whereas CR have a peak
spacing of 30 months, sunspots and Tilt angle have a spacing of
only 20 months. The solar open magnetic flux and the Voyager 1
magnetic field have a spacing of 25 months. The solar polar
magnetic field reverses later than the first peak of all
parameters and hence, could not be a direct cause (as if effect
started before the cause and lasted for several months more after
the cause disappeared). It seems that CR modulation is mainly
guided by magnetic configurations deep in the heliosphere, which
may not have a simple relationship with parameters near Earth or
near Sun.",
