One of the most significant factors affecting electron lifetime in the radiation belts is the interaction of electrons with VLF emission from the upper atmosphere. A power-spectral pattern of VLF emission is constructed on the basis of Intercosmos data obtained at a height of about 1000 km for the 70-20,000 Hz range. These data are used to estimate electron lifetimes for energies of 40, 100, 250 and 625 keV. The pitch-angle of diffusion of electrons of different energies is studied as a function of L in the range of about 1.5-5.
