Low-energy (0.3-5.0 keV) electrons were measured by the Raduga geostationary satellite during April-September 1980, a period of low magnetospheric disturbance. The particle spectra in a substorm disturbance region are found to be non-Maxwellian, while the particle fluxes are found to increase owing to an acceleration of plasma-sheet particles from the magnetotail at 6.6 earth radii. The results are interpreted in terms of the hypothesis that a substorm disturbance develops from an embryo initially localized at the midnight meridian.
