Scientific paper

The intensity, spectrum, and composition of galactic and solar cosmic rays at the lunar surface are studied on the basis of Luna and Apollo data on the distribution of Al-26 and Na-22 isotope activity in lunar regolith and on the distribution of low-energy nuclei tracks in feldspar and olivine crystals. It is shown that within experimental uncertainty, the intensity of the heavy component of solar cosmic rays has not changed by more than 30% during the past 400 to 500 million years (the cosmic age of lunar regolith).
