Scientific paper
The energetic electron and proton measurements obtained in the midnight-noon sector immediately after the magnetosphere had assumed the final compressed configuration during the storm sudden commencement (SSC) on March 22, 1979 are presented and analyzed. In particular, attention is given to the propagation of the steplike switch-on wave initiated at the magnetopause and its interaction with the local hot plasma and also to the modification of the existing drift orbits of energetic particles. The response of the particle distributions to the sudden compression during the SSC event is interpreted in terms of a simple model which approximates the spectra by single power laws.
