Revised Pioneer 10 absolute electron intensities in the inner Jovian magnetosphereImproved techniques for the analysis of Pioneer 10 Jupiter encounter data are used to obtain significantly more reliable values for energetic electron (Ee less than 21 MeV) intensities within the inner magnetosphere. The revised absolute intensities of electrons in the energy range 0.06-21 MeV are less than previous estimates by factors as great as 10 for L not exceeding 6. Previously published intensities at greater radial distances for Ee less than 21 MeV and at all radial distances for Ee greater than 21 MeV are not affected by the revisions.
