Description

Many satellite experiments showed interrelation between changes of particle fluxes in the near-Earth space and various magnetospheric and geophysical phenomena. In this report we focus on temporal and energy characteristics of bursts of high-energy electrons in the inner zone of the Earth's magnetosphere (L<2). In order to study the variations of electron characteristics during the observation of the bursts, caused by local disturbances of the radiation belt (e.g. lightning or seismic events), numerical modelling the propagation of particle cloud formed by electrons, precipitated from radiation belt, has been carried out. It was shown a relationship between energy distribution and temporal profile of electrons of burst in case of their local precipitation. The results of simulation are analyzed and compared with the data obtained in ARINA and VSPLESK satellite experiments. (paper)
