A previous investigation (Tholen and Armstrong, 1986) demonstrated that the occurrence of a storm sudden commencement (SSC) significantly increases the probability of observing energetic particle bursts in the magnetosphere, particularly in the magnetotail. Reported here is an evaluation of all such observed particle bursts following SSCs between 1973 and 1983. Data from five magnetometer stations near L = 4 were used to investigate the details of the correlations between SSC amplitudes, occurrence times, particle burst characteristics, and triggering probability. The results indicate that SSC amplitude apparently controls the probability of a subsequent particle burst if the observation location is in the magnetosheath or magnetotail; the observed intensity of the burst, however, appears to be unrelated to the size of the SSC.
