Scientific paper

The paper examines experimental data concerning the boundaries of the stable-capture region of solar-cosmic-ray protons in the radiation belts under quiet geomagnetic conditions in the 1-110 MeV energy range. The data are compared with theoretical calculations of boundaries corresponding to regions of the stochastic motion of particles in an asymmetric dipole field. It is shown that, at a proton energy of not less than 110 MeV, the boundary of isotropic fluxes at a pitch angle of not greater than 70 deg practically coincides with the theoretical boundary of the stochastic-motion region.
