Scientific paper

An analysis is made of Intercosmos-17 data concerning the distribution and dynamics of fluxes of protons, alpha particles, and C, N, and O nuclei during the intense magnetic storms of October 27, and December 2, 1977. Data on the heavy ions are compared with data obtained with the Explorer-45 and S3-3 satellites. A scattering mechanism is proposed which can explain the detection of heavy ions at low altitudes.
