The radio technique for the detection of cosmic particles has seen a major
revival in recent years. New and planned experiments in the lab and the
field, such as GLUE, Anita, Codalema, LOPES and LOFAR as well as
sophisticated Monte Carlos experiments have produced a wealth of new
information. Radio emission of ultra-high energy cosmic particles offers a
number of interesting advantages. Since

Approximately 20 years ago it was discovered that the largest solar energetic
particle (SEP) events are closely associated with Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) in
which the Sun suddenly ejects a billion tons of material at speeds that can exceed
2500 km/sec. The past solar maximum provided the opportunity to study the connection
between CMEs and SEPs using SOHO images and SEP data from near-Eart

Space era for cosmic ray physics began in 1957, when Soviet Union launched the
first satellite in October. The first experiment for cosmic radiation study was
conducted inboard Satellite -2 by prof . Sergey Vernov from Moscow State University.
He installed inboard this satellite the simple Geiger counter to measure fluxes of
cosmic rays above the Earth's atmosphere. Both this experiment and
