Scientific paper

Measurements of the intensities, energy spectra, angular variations, and composition characteristics of the low-energy ion populations (approximately 30 keV to 4 MeV) obtained by both Voyager spacecraft in the outer (more than about 10 Jupiter radii) Jovian magnetosphere are reported and interpreted. Also shown are some of the energetic electron measurements. Using the spectral and angular ion measurements, density and pressure profiles in the magnetosphere are constructed and then compared with results reported by the plasma wave and plasma science investigations (density) and the magnetic field investigation (pressure).
