The ordinary monotonic energy dispersion pattern was superimposed by the impulsive flux variations correlated with signatures of short transient injections (inferred from ground-based and mid-tail data). The whole gross pattern of 1-20 keV proton and electron inner edges was found to be in good quantitative agreement with the predictions of Ejiri's calculations of single particle drifts in the Volland-Stern electric field pattern whose intensity was chosen to satisfy the observed position of the plasmapause. It was also shown that precipitation is an important factor for electrons which indeed influence the position of the electron inner edge. The use of a realistic magnetotail model allowed us to compare the precipitation pattern and the plasma regimes in the midnight plasma sheet by mapping these different regions. The diffuse (CPS type) precipitation was found in the flux tubes of the inner magnetosphere containing the maximum intensity of the electron energy flux at the equator.
