Scientific paper

We study the two storm events of 1997: the one in May that accompanied a relativistic electron event (REE) and the other in September which, with a more profound Dst decrease, showed no significant flux increase of relativistic electrons. We find a larger amount of seed electrons is present in the May event compared to that of the September storm while the ULF power is more enhanced and the particle spectrum harder in the September event. Hence, we demonstrate that a larger storm does not necessarily produce more seed electrons and the amount of seed electrons is an important factor of an apparent increase in REE flux levels, while ULF can harden particle spectra without causing an apparent REE.
