Data produced by trielectrode traps on Soviet rockets and magnetometers on Explorer VI and Pioneer V were correlated and verified by various methods. The results show good agreement and indicate that the "current ring" discovered by magnetic measurements is a drift current caused by geomagnetic-field heterogeneity at an elevation of -60000 km in the outermost changed particle belt.
