Scientific paper

The diurnal-variation characteristics of cosmic-ray intensity are investigated on the basis of muon data for 1937-1983. Eleven-year and 22-year variations of cosmic-ray anisotropy are observed which are due to anisotropic diffusion. It is shown that, in the case of an open heliosphere, an additional diffusional outflow of particles from the heliosphere in the ecliptic plane can be produced, which compensates for the increase of wind velocity at high latitudes.
