Observations made with the Raduga geostationary satellite indicate that the density of relativistic electrons in the outer radiation belt during 1977-1979 experienced a modulation with periods of about 27 days, and 6 and 13 months. The 27-day modulation is associated with recurrent disturbances in the interplanetary medium; the 6-month modulation is associated with the change of the earth's heliolatitude in the course of the year; the 13-month modulation is associated with the synodic period of the rotation of Jupiter, a source of energetic electrons. In addition, it is shown that increases of relativistic-electron density in the outer belt were preceded by increases of solar wind velocity.
