  • The early diagnosis method of large-scale IMF disturbances by registration of GCR intensity scintillation (by means of the correlation method of signal receive from the distant high-latitude neutron monitors) has been suggested.
  • It has been established that cosmic ray scintillation are associated with large-scale disturbances in the interplanetary magnetic field ( magnetic corks). The magnetic corks separate the particle trajectories into permitted and prohibited ones that is manifested in the celestial sphere scintillation in cosmic rays.

Note: This list is used to construct an email group for announcementsand alerts prior to and during the campaign inerval. It is also providedto facilitate collaborations among participants. The main focus of the campaignis the post-event analysis of the data sets compiled during 15-17 Sept 99.Sign-ups are welcome before, during and after the core campaign interval.
