Assume the axial symmetric CR density distribution with the minimum along with the axis of a cylinder Then the observed –G points toward the density minimum ( ) located on the axis Assume the cylinder moving with the average solar wind velocity V sw Then the velocity V ax representing the cylinder orientation can be deduced from the apparent velocity V app, as V ax = V app - V sw model (1) V sw V ax sun V app earth -G cylinder axis density min.

model (2) earth -G R λ cylinder axis RERE density min. Assume the gaussian distribution for CR density, as R : distance from the cylinder axis I 0 : minimum density, : radial scale of the cylinder Then G(R E ) observed at the earth (R= R E ) is… R E : minimum distance between the earth & the cylinder axis (1) (2) With the observed G(R E ), R E can be calculated from (2) for each set of parameters, I 0 & Find a set of I 0 & giving the best-fit G(R E ) to the observed gradient
