Scientific paper

Radial profiles of electron intensity and phase space density in the energy range of ~0.7 to 8 MeV, between L values of 3 and 9, show that particle injections followed by fast radial diffusion lead to the main part of the outer radiation belt near L=4 to 5 during active periods. In quiet times the belt is supplied by inward diffusion from an external source. Various combinations of these two basic configurations are also seen.
