The spectral characteristics of plasma-sheet ion and electron populations during periods of low geomagnetic activity were determined from the analysis of 127 one-hour average samples of central plasma sheet ions and electrons. Particle data from the ISEE-1 low-energy proton and electron differential energy analyzer and medium-energy particle instrument were combined to obtain differential energy spectra in the plasma sheet at geocentric radial distances above 12 earth radii. The relationships between the ion and electron spectral shapes and between the spectral shapes and the geomagnetic activity index were statistically investigated. It was found that the presence of interplanetary particle fluxes does not affect the plasma sheet particle spectral shape.
