The MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER)
mission to Mercury has provided a wealth of new data about energetic particle
phenomena. With observations from MESSENGER's Energetic Particle Spectrometer, as
well as data arising from energetic electrons recorded by the X-Ray Spectrometer
and Gamma-Ray and Neutron Spectrometer (GRNS) instruments, recent work greatly
extends our record of the acceleration, transport, and loss of energetic
electrons at Mercury. The combined data sets include measurements from a few keV
up to several hundred keV in electron kinetic energy and have permitted
relatively good spatial and temporal resolution for many events. We focus here on
the detailed nature of energetic electron bursts measured by the GRNS system, and
we place these events in the context of solar wind and magnetospheric forcing at
Mercury. Our examination of data at high temporal resolution (10?ms) during the
period March 2013 through October 2014 supports strongly the view that energetic
electrons are accelerated in the near-tail region of Mercury's magnetosphere and
are subsequently "injected" onto closed magnetic field lines on the planetary
nightside. The electrons populate the plasma sheet and drift rapidly eastward
toward the dawn and prenoon sectors, at times executing multiple complete drifts
around the planet to form "quasi-trapped" populations.
