BETWEEN mid-July 1967 and early January 1968, part of the northern sky was regularly surveyed by interplanetary scintillation1,2 using the 4 acre aerial at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, Cambridge, to detect and measure the angular diameters of quasars and other compact radio sources at 81.5 MHz. On a number of days large increases (up to 200 per cent) in scintillation of many radio sources were observed. This article indicates that most of the enhancements tend to recur, with a period of 27 days, and that some also correlate with decreases in cosmic ray intensity.
