The Mars-7 probe performed measurements of electron fluxes with energies not less than 40 keV in the interplanetary medium during August 1973 to March 1974. The data indicate that Jupiter emits electrons into interplanetary space in the energy range of 40 keV to 6 MeV. The leading shock fronts of different-velocity plasma fluxes in the solar wind significantly change the intensity of the Jovian electrons. If Jupiter and the point of observation (i.e., the probe) are on the same side of the shock front, the intensity of electrons is 10-100 times greater than when Jupiter and the point of observation are on different sides of the front. Different time lags in the appearance of the maxima of electrons with energies of approximately 6 MeV and 40 keV are evidence of different transverse diffusion coefficients for these electrons.
