Scientific paper

Data of electron observations from the HARP instrument on the night side of circular orbits of the Phobos-2 spacecraft are summarized and studied in detail. Electron fluxes with energies greater than the electron energy of undisturbed solar wind, which are observed in the transition region behind the shock wave, show existence of the acceleration processes. Characteristic feature of the electron fluxes measured in the Martian magnetotail cannot be classified in the framework of modern views; however, a correlation between intensities of these fluxes and the undisturbed solar wind is shown.
