Scientific paper
This paper uses a homogeneous body of data on mean annual values N of the interplanetary intensity of protons (0.61 less than Ep less than 3.41 MeV) in the period 1973-1986 and over the heliocentric radial distance range 1.0 less than r less than 22.4 AU. It is found that the quantity N(r-sq) is well correlated with the annual mean sunspot number, with the exception of anomalously low values in 1979, 1980 (in particular), and 1981. The anomaly is attributed to a gross change in the interplanetary magnetic field associated with reversal of the polarity of the sun's polar field.
