Description

The spherical zonal harmonic analysis is performed, by applying the Nagashima's new method of three-dimensional analysis of cosmic ray anisotropy on several Forbush decreases. The zonal harmonic components up to the second order obtained from the analysis are discussed in comparison with cosmic ray data from several neutron monitor stations, geomagnetic data, and interplanetary magnetic data. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Es wird eine Zerlegung nach Legendreschen Kugelfunktionen fuer einige Forbush-Absenkungen durchgefuehrt, wobei Nagashimas neue Methode der dreidimensionalen Analyse der Anisotropie der kosmischen Strahlen angewendet wird. Die Legendreschen Polynome bis zur zweiten Ordnung, die man aus der Analyse erhaelt, werden diskutiert im Vergleich mit Daten der kosmischen Strahlen von einigen Neutronenmonitor-Stationen, geomagnetischen Daten und Daten ueber das interplanetare Magnetfeld.
