Solar modulation of cosmic ray intensity and solar flare events inferred from (14)C contents in dated tree rings

Year: 1985

Type: article

Abstract: The delta 14C values in 42 rings of a white spruce grown in Mackenzie Delta was measured as a continuing effort of tracing the history of solar modulation of cosmic ray intensity. The delta 14C values in six rings were measured, in search of a 14C increase due to two large solar flares that occurred in 1942. The results are presented.
