Scientific paper

We use the charged particle detectors onboard SAMPEX satellite to study the relativistic electron response to high speed solar wind streams (HSS) and coronal mass ejections (CME). We will compare and contrast the electron response initiated by these two different interplanetary drivers. It is well known that the high speed streams are more prevalent around the declining part of the solar cycle and coronal mass ejections are more numerous during the ascending part of the solar cycle. However there are also times when both HSS and CMEs are present during the same period. Thus this study will not only explore solar cycle dependence of the relativistic electrons but also the nature of these two interplanetary drivers. We will augment the SAMPEX data with those obtained by sensors onboard Polar as well. Both SAMPEX and Polar cover all L-shells and have accumulated continuous high quality data. Interplanetary data will be provided by ACE and Wind sensors.
