Short summary
We analysed data from radiation monitors aboard different spacecraft such as Rosetta and Integral. From the data, we extracted the evolution of galactic cosmic rays as a function of time (over a full solar cycle) and position (from 1 to 4.5 AU). In the main results, we confirm the overall evolution (anti-correlation) of the fluxes with respect to the solar activity. We found a surprising result, which is a decrease in the flux of galactic cosmic rays around comet 67P.
