Abstract

The paper investigates the lunar variation of the intensity of cosmic radiation as assumed by E. Bagge and O. Binder. By evaluating the data of two stations on the same meridian circle (Rome and Makapuu Point) we reach the conclusion that this lunar variation is only apparent. The result obtained by E. Bagge and O. Binder could be caused by a small difference between the diurnal period and the assumed lunar variation. This statement is demonstrated by searching for variations with periods 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26 hours which also differ little from the 24-hour period of the diurnal variation. For these calculations the data of the station Mt. Norikura were used.
