5. Conclusions

[19]  A few conclusions follow from the analysis and comparison of simultaneous observation of geomagnetic pulsations in two frequency ranges (7.0-22.0 mHz and 0.5-2.0 Hz):

[20]  1. In 70% of giant pulsation recorded at auroral and middle latitudes are observed against a background of global excitation of the geomagnetic pulsations in the Pc1 band (“pearl” series).

[21]  2. The Pg pulsation period ( T ) is linearly related to the repetition period of "pearls" ( t ), the ratio ( T/t ) being proportional to the value of Dst variation.

[22]  3. The detected interrelation between Pg pulsation and "pearls" is an indirect experimental confirmation of the fact that the protons with energies sim 0-80 keV injected into the magnetosphere at the nightside and drifting westward to the dayside participate in generation of Pg.
