Cosmic ray electron capture isotopes as probes of solar modulation

Description

The survival of various pure electron capture isotopes in cosmic rays is calculated to depend significantly on the energy at which they enter the solar cavity. A determination of the abundance of these isotopes may therefore provide important information on the energy loss process due to solar modulation. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Berechnungen zeigen, dass die Lebensdauer verschiedener reiner Elektroneneinfang-Isotope in der kosmischen Strahlung stark von der Energie abhaengen, mit der sie in den Einflussbereich der Sonne eindringen. Eine Bestimmung der Haeufigkeit dieser Isotope liefert daher wichtige Information ueber den Energieverlustprozess durch die Sonnenmodulation. (orig./WBU)
