Scientific paper

The significance of ground-based observations of solar cosmic rays for the study of the earth's environs, the interplanetary medium, and the sun itself is discussed. Effects of the geomagnetic field on the rays are examined along with transformations taking place when the rays impinge on the terrestrial atmosphere. An account is given of the theoretical relations which provide the basis for the processes involved in the propagation of the cosmic rays through the solar-controlled interplanetary medium. Experimental results are considered, giving attention to ground-level enhancements, the morphology of solar cosmic ray events, energy spectra, anisotropies, and the acceleration of solar cosmic rays.
