Abstract
We describe for the first time the analysis of high energy electrons ( above 240 MeV) from the COSPIN/KET experiment onboard Ulysses. The ele ctron time profiles in four energy windows are presented from Oct. 90 to the end of March 94, up to a maximum heliographic latitude of 57 de grees S. The recovery rates we derived for the electrons are compared to the recovery rates of positively charged particles with the same ri gidity.
