Electron data from Explorer 47 show a number of quiet-time enhancements in the intensity of interplanetary electrons over the energy range 0.22-2.5 MeV, lasting from 3 to 20 days both in the interplanetary medium and inside the magnetotail. The observed enhancements differ from those associated with solar electron events or magnetospheric bursts in their energy-time profiles and energy spectra, and in the presence of possible intensity fluctuations suggesting a periodicity. The energy spectra are not unlike those obtained in the vicinity of Jupiter by Pioneer 10. These observations, together with the fact that enhancements occurred during times when the earth could be magnetically connected to the magnetosphere of Jupiter, lead to the suggestion that the observed electrons may be of Jovian origin.
