Hysteresis Effect on Solar and Interplanetary Activity

Abstract

The hysteresis effect has been studied sequentially to observe the features of cosmic ray intensity (CRI) for the year 1996-2018, covering two consecutive solar cycles 23 and 24.   The regular changes in the hysteresis curve of cosmic ray modulation for different phases of sunspot cycle (Stoker., 1971), gives an inference of propagation of shocks through interplanetary medium, which in turn is the main player to produce regular changes (Moraal.,1986). This envisages that solar parameters are originate from wide range of altitudes ,in case of often similar hysteresis models, while small difference can be ruled out.
