Scientific paper

A single function is used to represent the averaged differential energy spectra of H (0.1 keV to 1 MeV), He, C, and O (greater than 1 MeV) ions observed in the geostationary orbit. It is suggested that the solar wind is the most probable source of these energetic ions; solar-wind ions are transported to the earth by convection in the large-scale quasi-stationary electric field of the magnetotail. The formation of the dominant ion fluxes by the direct penetration of solar cosmic rays into the magnetosphere is assessed. Theoretical and experimental results on the energy densities of ions of solar and ionospheric origins are compared.
