Scientific paper

The paper deals with relativistic electrons (energies above 2.3 MeV) recorded in the auroral zone (L = 5 to 8) onboard the Cosmos 721 satellite. In the passage through the auroral zone beyond the region of the South-Atlantic anomaly, relativistic electrons were recorded in the L-shell range from 0.3 to 1, independently of the MLT. No conclusive relationship was observed between the relativistic electron flux intensity and geomagnetic activity, nor between relativistic and lower-energy electron fluxes.
