The enhanced diurnal variation of cosmic-ray intensity observed over the period 22 May to 4 June, 1973 was analyzed. The main characteristic of this large-amplitude wave train is that the enhanced diurnal variation shows a maximum around 1600 h. For this analysis, data from high-latitude neutron monitors and from the satellite HEOS-2 were used. This diurnal variation is caused by the superposition of convection and field-aligned diffusion due to an enhanced density gradient of about 8%/AU. It is shown that the diffusive vector is field-aligned on the days which are separated from magnetic sector boundaries.
