Abstract
A bunch of Starlink satellites was launched after the peak of the first magnetic storm at 18:13 (UT) on February 3, and 38 of the 49 satellites re-entered the atmosphere during the succeeding second moderate magnetic storms. A global network of the ground-based multidirectional muon detectors, the Global Muon Detector Network (GMDN), has been continuously monitoring the intensity of cosmic rays arriving at Earth. Neutron monitors (NMs) are also monitoring cosmic ray variations in different energy ranges. In this paper, we analyze the cosmic ray decreases associated with the interplanetary shock and coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) which caused the sequence of “Starlink” magnetic storms observed with GMDN and NMs.
