摘要
We report the discovery that for latitudes above similar to 40 degrees S, the observed recurring modulation of cosmic rays and anomalous nuclei occurs without the detection by Ulysses of the solar wind velocity and magnetic field recurring enhancements that have, heretofore at lower latitudes, defined corotating interaction regions - i.e., the mechanism producing the recurring intensity variations > 40 degrees S appears to be located beyond the radial range of Ulysses.
