Instrument carrying balloon flights using the radio-cosmic-ray technique have been made during the day and the night, to investigate the amount of the diurnal variation at high altitudes. It was found that the effect, if any, is smaller than the experimental error of two per cent., and is estimated

โฆ Synopsis
We have correlated intensity decreases in the galactic component of cosmic rays observed at the Earth with solar phenomena. We have found that there exist intensity decreases detected underground, which are probably associated with long-lived interplanetary streams and which are not directly associated with single flares. We expect to detect the streams with underground monitors before the arrival of the streams at the Earth. The early detection will be in the northern or in the southern hemisphere, depending on the sign of the interplanetary field.
