Figure 8 shows the distribution of the mortality rate for EUROSTAT shortlist death cause “Neoplasms” for Europe and the Mediterranean, under the same conditions and designations as in Figure 1. The areas with increased statistically significant correlation are scattered throughout Europe their pattern is similar to the mix of the patterns in Figures 1 and 4. Figure 8: Europe and the Mediterranean, the “Neoplasms” mortality rate for 2012 (black isolines), and its statistically significant correlation with annual alpha particle flux (red isolines) for the studied interval 2011 – 2019 Figure 9: The high statistically significant correlation between annual fluxes of cosmic alpha radiation and the “Neoplasms” mortality rate for the EUROSTAT NUTS-2 region West Central Scotland (NUTS 2021), United Kingdom, indicates the presence of a causal relationship between the two phenomena 340 345 350 355 360 365 370 375 0,0 0,1 0,2 0,3 0,4 0,5 0,6 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Mortality rate, number of deaths per 100,000 inhabitants Alpha particle flux, (number of particles).cm -2 .s -1 .sr -1 .MeV -1 Year Eurostat NUTS-2 region: West Central Scotland (NUTS 2021), United Kingdom.
