The relationship betwen intensity increases of electrons in the outer magnetosphere and large-scale disturbances of the solar wind is investigated on the basis of Prognoz-6,7 and Raduga satellite measurements of high-energy (1 MeV) electrons. It is shown that the effect of high-speed solar-wind streams on the magnetosphere consists in the acceleration of electrons near the magnetopause and in the intensification of the transfer of the accelerated particles (as well as those exsisting in the interplanetary medium) into the magnetosphere. Particular attention is given to Dst variations and the dynamics of relativistic electrons at L = 6.6.
