Observation and modeling of energetic particles at synchronous orbit on July 29, 1977
Abstract
In the twelve hours following a worldwide storm, there was a series of at least four magnetospheric substorms, the last and largest of which exhibited an expansion phase onset at approximately 1200 UT. Data from six spacecraft in three general local time groupings (0300, 0700, and 1300 LT) were examined and vector magnetic field data and energetic electron and ion data from approximately 15 keV to 2 MeV were employed.
