The electron spectrum in the stratosphere (up to 31 km) was studied with a balloon-born spectrometer both during the phase of ascent and during the 20-hr drift phase. The experiment was carried out on October 12, 1972. The characteristics of the instrument and its efficiency control parameters are described. The background of secondary electrons at the drift altitude is established by studying the spectrum of secondary electrons with energies below the geomagnetic threshold at various heights. The experimental and calculated differential spectra of electrons produced in the atmosphere are presented and discussed.
