The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mercury’s Weather-Beaten Surface: Understanding Mercury in the Context of Lunar and Asteroidal Space Weathering Studies (2014, background): “The intensity of GCRs in the most recent solar minimum exceeded that of the last five decades, indicating much lower solar activity (Mewaldt et al. 2010).”
MEASUREMENT OF BORON AND CARBON FLUXES IN COSMIC RAYS WITH THE PAMELA EXPERIMENT (2014, methodology): “The data used for this analysis were taken by PAMELA during an unusually quiet solar minimum period, resulting in an enhanced flux of galactic cosmic rays at low energies in the heliosphere, which has already been observed for protons Adriani et al. (2013) and nuclei Mewaldt et al. (2010).”
TIME DEPENDENCE OF THE e− FLUX MEASURED BY PAMELA DURING THE 2006 JULY–2009 DECEMBER SOLAR MINIMUM (2013, background): “Instead, minimum modulation conditions continued until the end of 2009 when the highest levels of cosmic rays were recorded at Earth since the beginning of the space age (see, e.g., Mewaldt et al. 2010).”
