A change in the ratio of the intensities of particles of high-energy cosmic rays arriving from the North and South in the time interval of 2010-2014 has been detected with a calorimeter entering into the experimental complex of the PAMELA satellite experiment since June 2006.

Abstract

A change in the ratio of the intensities of particles of high-energy cosmic rays arriving from the North and South in the time interval of 2010-2014 has been detected with a calorimeter entering into the experimental complex of the PAMELA satellite experiment since June 2006. The polarity of the magnetic field of the Sun changed in a part of this time interval. Thus, the results indicate that the North-South asymmetry of cosmic ray fluxes is related to the magnetic field of the Sun.
