The magnetospheric ULF waves observed during the magnetospheric compression event of November 1, 1984, were investigated using the magnetic field and medium-energy ion data obtained by the AMPTE Charge Composition Explorer. The electric field of ULF waves was inferred from the particle data, using a method developed on the basis of the gyration acceleration mechanism. Three types of waves were found: (1) a 10-15-min wave with perturbations in the magnetic field intensity and in the flux of ions; (2) a 3-5-min standing Alfven wave with perturbations in the azimuthal magnetic field component and in the radial component of the electric field; and (3) a 2-5-min irregular disturbance near the magnetopause, which involves all components of the magnetic field and the intensity of the ion flux. The origins of these waves are discussed.
