Scientific paper

Presented is an analysis of measurements from the electron electrostatic analyzer on the Freja satellite. The observed fluxes exhibit signatures characteristic of the electron microburst phenomenon, from the rarely-observed low end of the energy spectrum of such events. The analyses reported here allow determination of source position in three dimensions and provide information on the electron spectra. A statistical approach is used to characterize the microburst source region in three spatial dimensions. It is shown that the microburst source region appears on the dawnside at equatorial source latitudes.
