In this thesis, we study an energetic electron atmospheric precipitation event that occurred on 17–19 January 2005, by quantifying the energy distribution, geographic extent and net flux of the precipitating electrons. The electron spectra measured by the IDP instrument onboard the DEMETER satellite...
