Scientific paper

A common feature of all rocket measurements of the differential flux of primary and secondary electrons under auroral activity is that between 30 and 85 eV, where the measurements overlap in energy, the electron flux data can be fitted by a certain power law. In the present paper, it is shown that the existence of plasma waves even in a region where they are nonresonant with the ambient particles can significantly modify the observed flux power law.
