Cosmic sources of the Earth's atmosphere ionization (review)

 Characteristics of the Earth's upper atmosphere vary constantly under the action of electromagnetic emission of the sun, solar wind, streams of galactic and solar cosmic rays as well as of precipitation of captured magnetosphere electrons. Depending on their energies charged particles and sola...
