Scientific paper

A rocket-borne experiment using an electron and proton energy spectrometer is described, with particular reference to calibration and data reduction procedures. An upper limit of the measured proton flux is found to be 1,000,000 protons per sq cm sec sr keV. The characteristics of particle precipitation observed during flight over the auroral band are evaluated. The electron flux in regions of maximum flux tends to be the most field-aligned in the energy interval with the highest intensity.
