THE MORPHOLOGY OF THE OUTER ZONE ELECTRON DISTRIBUTION AT LOW ALTITUDES FROM JANUARY THROUGH JULY AND SEPTEMBER, 1963 FROM INJUN III,

Abstract

An intensive study was made of data from three 213 G.M. tubes and one 302 G.M. tube which were carried on the State University of Iowa-Office of Naval Research satellite Injun III. Median latitude profiles of the electron population of the low altitude region of the outer zone for energies E sub e > or = 40 keV, E sub e > or = 230 keV, and E sub e > or = 1.6 MeV was derived. The dependence of intensity on scalar B was investigated.
