Scientific paper

The motion of a space-limited energetic electron bunch injected along geomagnetic field lines is studied. Dimensions of a bunch moving in a weakly inhomogeneous medium are shown to change so that a product of the bunch and background densities divided by a square of the magnetic field appears to be an adiabatic invariant. The bunch decelerates when its density tends to the background electron density.
