Energetic electrons in the exterior cusp: identifying the source

A case study is presented to test the role several different sources may play in populating the exterior cusp with energetic (<I>E</I>&gt;40 keV) electrons. The properties of the electrons measured in the exterior cusp are compared with the expected signatures of three sources in...
