Electron flux and high energy albedo gamma-ray measurements in near-earth space were made on board the orbital system Salyut 6-Soyuz-Progress in 1979. The energy ranges were 45-520 MeV and 30-410 MeV. The instrumentation included six scintillation detectors, a gas Cerenkov counter, a lead converter, and two lead filters. The dependence of fluxes of albedo gamma rays and terrestrial electrons on the threshold magnetic cutoff rigidity for various energetic intervals was noted. Charged particle and gamma ray measurements will aid in the study of the interaction of cosmic radiation with the earth's atmosphere and magnetosphere. The structure of the Brazilian magnetic anomaly is also presented.
