Scientific paper

A detailed analysis is presented of a series of five successive upstream proton events observed within a one-hour period on October 11, 1978. The observations were performed by the low-energy proton instrument on ISEE 3, which is designed to measure three-dimensional anisotropies in the energy range 35-1600 keV. Of particular interest are effects in the anisotropy direction as the spacecraft enters or leaves a particle-populated region. An analysis of the directions of the gradient anisotropies at the onsets and ends of the events reveals that upstream protons propagate in sheets or slabs from the earth's bow shock out to ISEE 3.
