Probing solar modulation analytic models with cosmic ray periodic spectra

The AMS02 experiment has published the periodic spectra of proton, helium and helium isotopes across the majority of the 24 solar cycle. These precise data exhibit temporal structures that correlate with solar modulation. In this study, we utilize these data to probe three analytic solar modulation models, including the force-field approximation, the convection-diffusion model and the extended force-field approximation with a drift effect. We adopt a method that eliminates the influence of interstellar cosmic ray spectra, and use the Earth-observed spectra at time t_1 to predict those at time t_2. In order to explore the rigidity-dependence of solar modulation models, we substitute the conventional potential parameter ϕ with a modified parameter ϕ'=R/ k_2(R)ϕ for our analysis. Combining with the χ^2 minimization method, the best-fit modulation parameter ϕ' can be evaluated. First, we test the validity of a rigidity-independent ϕ' and find that both the force-field approximation (FFA) and the extended force-field approximation (EFFA) agree well with data near the solar minimum period. However, all models significantly deviate from the data during the solar maximum. Consequently, we assume a constant ϕ'(t_1) at solar minimum and calculate Δϕ'=ϕ'(t_2)-ϕ'(t_1) for each rigidity bin at time t_2. It is found that Δϕ' generally adheres to a linear-logarithm relationship with rigidity at any given time. By adopting a linear-logarithm formula of Δϕ', we further discover that both the modified FFA and EFFA can reconcile the observations during solar maxima. This suggests that at solar maximum, the parameter ϕ', which correlates with the diffusion pattern in the heliospheric magnetic fields, exhibits a rigidity dependence.
