| Abstract: | Measurements on board the low altitude polar orbiting satellite Intercosmos-17 /nearly circular orbit h = 500 km, i = 83.5°/ have shown relatively high fluxes of high energy electrons /Ee > 100 MeV and Ee > 300 MeV respeetively/ at minimum-B-equator. Computation of the electron production spectra assuming the interaction of high energy protons of the inner radiation belt with residual atmosphere is made. The considered mechanism can explain the enhanced flux of high energy electrons registered in the Brazil magnetic anomaly. |
