This paper presents first results of two-point measurements carried out onboard two satellites of the INTERBALL project which was launched into a highly elliptical orbit in August, 1995. Both satellites are provided with instrumentation for charged particle measurements in a wide energy range (from 0.1 keV to 1 MeV). The distance between the satellites was about 1000 km for the presented events. During the crossings of the magnetopause region, the flux and angular distribution of electrons just inside the low-latitude magnetosphere are compared with those just outside the boundary layer and the electron leakage from the magnetosphere is examined. The peculiarities of the distributions observed by different satellites are discussed in terms of boundary position shifting. The results of the study of the low-latitude magnetopause are compared with the measurements carried out in the plasma mantle region.
