Extract

Evidence has recently been put forward that Jupiter might be modulating the intensity of cosmic radiation observed at the earth (Pizzella and Venditti 1973; Cini-Castagnoli et al. 1973). It therefore seemed worthwhile to analyse underground meson data in Jovian time for any evidence of an effect at the higher energies over a complete orbital period.
