| 内容記述 | A study of Jovian electron-flux increases observed aboard the IMP-8 earth-orbiting satellite reveals that, contrary to previous reports of a 4-8-month Jovian electron 'season', Jovian electron-intensity increases were observed almost continuously from late 1973 into 1976, with peak intensities occurring at times of best connection between earth and Jupiter along the average direction of the interplanetary magnetic field about every 13 months. These observations are consistent with Jovian electron propagation both along and across the direction of the average interplanetary magnetic field. A convection-diffusion model for Jovian electron propagation, which assumes that Jupiter is a continuously emitting point source of electrons, originally developed to explain the distribution of Jovian electrons observed on the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft, can account also for the distribution of Jovian electrons observed at the orbit of earth. |
