The structure of energetic protons from the Earth radiation belts, averaged for a magnetically quiet period, can be explained by the equilibrium between the radial diffusion transfer, loss due to Coulomb collisions, charge exchange with ambient neutral hydrogen of the geocorona, and drift of protons under the influence of magnetospheric convection. By transfer we mean diffusion owing to fluctuations related to substorms in the large-scale electric and magnetic fields. Equatorially mirroring protons with energies of 1-750 keV have been considered, and the theoretical predictions of the proton energy spectra for L = 1.0-6.6 have been compared with the observations on several satellites.
