Scientific paper

The relative rates of pitch angle diffusion versus radial diffusion are examined for the 1.5-2 L-value interval. Because pitch angle diffusion lifetimes due to interactions with the VLF waves are found to be much shorter, the outer edge of the inner zone must be controlled by, and is probably the result of, interactions from ground-based VLF transmitters. Electrons with energies between 36 and 317 keV in the 1.6-1.9 L-value region were observed to have lifetimes limited to a few days by interactions with VLF transmitter waves.
