H-component o f Tixie magnetogramm o f the April 3, 2004 auroral zone magnetic bays and Dst- index during April 3-4, 2004 magnetic storm. April 3-4, 2004 Magnetic Storm Measurements of the 0.3 MeV electrons on April 3, 2004 give us an example of two-step fast intensity increase both during active phases of two substorms. Magnetic storm started at 04 UT April 3 and reached Dst minimum -110 nT at 24 UT. During all the main phase substorm activity was recorded. Figure 4 presents Dst index and H-component of the Tixie magnetogramm. Figures 5 shows temporal 0.3 MeV electron flux variations on three latitude levels in the same manner as in a previous case study. First fast 0.3 MeV intensity increase at L=3.5 and 4 was registered before the end of the main phase during substorm activation on 17.40 UT. On Figure 4 first arrow indicates that it happens during strong magnetic bay. It is not easy to indicate exact time of the inward injection during the second increase which involved also L=3 level. It occurs between 2140 and 2256 UT. Intensity increase was registered this time also in 1.7 MeV channel at L=3 (not shown). S ’ (ft (ft ¥ z 0 в 12 16 0 6 12 1B UT Fig. 5.

Ring current development and CHD magnetogramm are shown on Figure 6. 0.3 MeV electron intensity measured on L= 3, and 3.5 are presented by Figure 7. On L=4 and 5 adiabatic effects with magnetic field line stretching results in electron intensity decrease, therefore particle injection effect was recorded only at lower L-shells. Two steps of the electron intensity increase were registered on L=3.5. On Figure 6 three time marks are indicated: at 10.21 UT when normal electron flux (4 .104 (cm2.s.ster)-l was measured and two moments with increased flux half of minute later at 10.55 UT (2 105 (cm2.s.ster)-l) and at 12.07 UT (5 105 (cm2.s.ster)-l). Both intensity increases coincides remarkably with sharp magnetic bays. At L=3 there are sign of the first steplike increase, but later, after 12 UT to 20 UT electron intensity 19
