Abstract
Lunar nightside electron fluxes were studied with the aid of the ALSEP/CPLEE (Charged Particle Lunar Environment Experiment) and other instruments. A study was also made of the shadowing of magnetotail plasma sheet electrons by interactions between the lunar body and the ambient magnetic field and by interactions between charged particles and lunar remnant magnetic fields.
