Scientific paper

An unusually large (four orders of magnitude) variation of interplanetary-plasma density was observed near the earth after the isolated solar flare of July 26, 1979. The extremely low density value of 0.1-0.2/cu cm was observed together with decreases in plasma velocity and temperature. This variation is interpreted as the result of the successive passage of the earth through a shock layer, a magnetic cloud, and the wake of the cloud in the interplanetary medium. A global quiet day was found to occur on earth right after the geomagnetic disturbance as the result of the intense rarefaction of the interplanetary medium after the isolated flare.
