Abstract

The correlation between the GCR intensity and the tilt of the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) during three solar cycles is considered. The correlation coefficients for the periods of decreasing and increasing intensity have been calculated, and the time lag of the GCR variations delay relative to changes in the HCS tilt has been determined. It has been shown that the correlation coefficients are independent of the heliospheric magnetic field (HMF) direction. The possible diffusive mechanism, by which the current sheet tilt is related to the GCR intensity, is briefly discussed.
