Scientific paper

Data obtained with an Explorer-45 instrument for detecting the magnetic components of ELF signals propagating in the magnetosphere are examined, showing that the strongest, most persistent signals were plasmaspheric hiss from a few hundred to a few thousand Hertz. Broad-band signals of 25 milligamma were common. The most intense hiss was observed in the recovery phase of magnetic storms at the inner edge of the ring current. Its source appears to be the outer plasmasphere. Most of the hiss is attributed to generation of hiss through cyclotron resonance with energetic electrons. Ring current protons, forming a peak in the proton flux between 10 and 100 keV, may be a source of some of the hiss.
