An account is given of measurements of electrons made by the LLL magnetic electron spectrometer (60 to 3000 keV in seven differential energy channels) on the Ogo-5 satellite in the earth's outer-belt regions during 1968 and early 1969. The data were analyzed specifically to determine pitch-angle diffusion lifetimes as a function of energy in the L-range 2 to 5. As a part of this effort, the general dynamics of these regions were studied in terms of the time dependent energy spectra, and pitch-angle distribution for the seven energy groups were obtained as a function of L wtih representative values presented for L = 2.5 to 6. dynamics The derived diffusion coefficients provide a quite reasonable picture of electron transport in the radiation belts. Both the radial-and pitch-angle-diffusion results are compared with earlier results.
