Scientific paper

Data on cosmic-ray intensity anisotropy are used to investigate the structure of strong interplanetary magnetic disturbances. The shape of the shock front associated with the chromospheric flare of Dec. 23, 1966, is deduced by comparing the observed longitudinal distribution of the intensity rise of cosmic rays generated by that flare with a theoretically calculated distribution. It is suggested that the main phase of a typical Forbush decrease occurs in three stages, with the first beginning after passage of the shock front, the second beginning when earth enters a 'magnetic region', and the third taking place in the relatively weak magnetic field of the central part of the flare plasma.
