             abstract = "Hysteresis plots between cosmic-ray (CR) intensity (recorded at 
                         the Climax station) and sunspot relative number R Z show broad 
                         loops in odd cycles (19, 21, and 23) and narrow loops in even 
                         cycles (20 and 22). However, in the even cycles, the loops are not 
                         narrow throughout the whole cycle; around the sunspot-maximum 
                         period, a broad loop is seen. Only in the rising and declining 
                         phases, the loops are narrow in even cycles. The CR modulation is 
                         known to have a delay with respect to R Z, and the delay was 
                         believed to be longer in odd cycles (19, 21, and 23; about 10 
                         months) than the delay in even cycles (20 and 22; about 3 - 5 
                         months). When this was reexamined, it was found that the delays 
                         are different during the sunspot-minimum periods (2, 6, and 14 
                         months for odd cycles and 7 and 9 months for even cycles) and 
                         sunspot-maximum periods (0, 4, and 7 months for odd cycles and 5 
                         and 8 months for even cycles). Thus, the differences between odd 
                         and even cycles are not significant throughout the whole cycle. In 
                         the recent even cycle 24, hysteresis plots show a preliminary 
                         broadening near the sunspot maximum, which occurred recently 
                         (February 2012). The CR level (recorded at Newark station) is 
                         still high in 2013, indicating a long lag (exceeding 10 months) 
                         with respect to the sunspot maximum. © 2014 Springer
