Electron omnidirectional intensity contours in the Earth's outer radiation zone at the magnetic equator

A comprehensive graphic display of the omnidirectional intensities of electrons (E > 40 keV, > 230 keV, and >1.6 MeV) in the outer radiation zone observed during the ten-month period October 1962 through July 1963 with an array of Geiger-Mueller tubes borne on the earth-satellite Explorer 14 is presented.as contours of constant omnidirectional intensities of electrons with energies exceeding the above thresholds as functions of shell-parameter L and time at the magnetic equator.apparent in these maps of outer zone electron intensities have previously been discussed, the present graphic summary provides 8n extensive panorama of the morphology of the energetic electron distributions in the outer zone and a compact, concise medium for comparison with related ground-based and satellite measurements of geophysical phenomena.The observations are displayed Although many of the phenomena
