Injection of electrons and protons with energies of tens of MeV into L less than 3 on 24 March 1991

On 24 March 1991 instrumentation aboard CRRES observed the almost instantaneous injection of electrons and protons with energies above 15 MeV into the L-region in the range 2-3. The energy spectrum of the injected electrons, a power law (E exp -6) peaked at 15 MeV and continued to at least 50 MeV.
