Annotation

The correlation between the fluxes of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) and the number of solar spots decreased during the minima of the last two even solar activity cycles, but persistent correlation existed between the GCR fluxes and the modulus of the Sun's magnetic field and the solar wind velocity, which is probably associated with a decisive influence of the high-speed solar wind that flows from polar coronal holes on the properties of the interplanetary medium in these periods.
