Scientific paper

The Intercosmos-17 electron spectrometer, operating in the 0.1-300 GeV energy range, measured fluxes of primary and secondary electrons during 1977-1978. An approximation for the primary electrons is presented which tends to confirm the model of Bulanov et al. (1975), according to which the propagation of electrons in the Galaxy is determined by isotropic diffusion with a diffusion coefficient that depends on electron energy. Measurements of quasi-trapped electrons with energies not less than approximately 110-MeV are discussed. Calculations carried out for longitudes of 280 and 195 deg show that an electron with an initial energy of 1000 MeV and a final energy of 100 MeV will escape at a height of 50 km at a longitude of 280 deg and at a height of 65 km at 195 deg.
