Cosmic ray heliospheric modulation potential ϕ
Description
A revised reconstruction of monthly and new daily modulation parameter Phi (in MV) from ground-based cosmic ray data since 1964. The modulation parameter corresponds to the local interstellar spectrum (LIS) of cosmic rays as provided by Vos and Potgieter (2015) and parametrized cosmic ray yield function provided by Mishev et al. (2020)
