Scientific paper

Energy supply rates to the terrestrial and Jovian magnetospheres are estimated on the basis of recent information on controlling parameters and are compared with energy consumption rates inside the two magnetospheres. The dominant role played by the reconnection process is suggested; however, the high ejection rate of energetic electrons from the Jovian magnetosphere reported by Conlon (1978) might suggest the importance of planetary rotation as the energy source.
