We present results from an analysis and comparison of long lasting energetic (>˜50 keV) ion and electron events observed by Ulysses, Voyager-1 and 2 and Pioneer-11 in the Jovian magnetosphere. Our analysis suggests the existence of an extended magnetopause boundary layer of energetic ions and electrons in the outer high latitude magnetosphere (Ulysses, Pioneer-11), that is also evident in the low latitude dayside and nightside magnetosphere as well (Ulysses, Voyarer-1/2). The proposed concept of the large scale high latitude magnetopause boundary particle layer provide us with the possibility of a new synthesis of a variety of Jovian observational characteristics (i.e. origin of 5/10 h particle periodicities). The analysis of high time resolution measurements suggests that the quasi-periodic ˜40-50 min particle (accompanied by radio and aurora) emissions from the poles of the planet was the principal source of the high latitude magnetopause layer during the Ulysses flyby of Jupiter.
