Scientific paper

The relationship between geomagnetic pulsations and the modulation of an electron flux (with an energy above 40 keV) is studied on the basis of data obtained by the Intercosmos 5 satellite and a network of ground-based observatories. The existence of two types of modulation - diffusion modulation and injection modulation - is established, and the characteristic parameters of each type of modulation are identified. The analysis indicates that an exponential dependence appears to exist between the diffusion-modulation depth and the amplitude of geomagnetic pulsations. It is shown that injection modulation is of a temporary nature and is caused by injection of hot plasma from the magnetospheric tail.
