Scientific paper

Measurements were made with the Intercosmos-17 scintillation counter in 1977 in order to investigate the contribution of albedo neutrons with energies of 1-30 MeV to the formation of radiation-belt protons of corresponding energies. The differential current density of albedo neutrons is presented for the invariant latitude of 42.7 deg during a quiet period of solar activity (October 8-10, 1977). The following value is obtained for this differential current density: I0 (1 MeV) = 0.104 + or - 0.023 neutrons/sq cm s MeV.
