Scientific paper

Observations of locally trapped nonthermal continuum radiation and distant encounters with the Jovian magnetotail are reported. An attempt is made to deduce information on the morphology of the distant tail of Jupiter. It is noted that the observations of continuum radiation trapped in low-density regions of the solar wind suggest that Voyager may at times be connected to the distant tail by a low-density trough which acts as a wave guide and allows radiation from the tail to reach the spacecraft.
