Scientific paper

The data obtained by Pioneer 11 confirmed results from Pioneer 10 and provided new information for an understanding of the physics of the Jovian magnetosphere. Attention is given to the significance of Pioneer 11 data in relation to two fundamentally different models which have been proposed to account for the variations in the electron flux observed in Jupiter's outer magnetosphere. Proton flux characteristics are considered, taking into account the intensity profiles of energetic particles trapped in the dipole region of Jupiter's magnetic field.
