Abstract Blake and Freisen painted out that if the anomalous cosmic rays are only singly charged they can penetrate deeply into the Earth's magnetosphere well below the cutoff for stripped ions. Ions which reach low altitude can be stripped by the residual atmosphere and become stably trapped. An experiment has been developed which will be able to detect the intensities of such stably trapped heavy ions as a function of magnetospheric position. In anticipation of the flight of this experiment, the fluxes and spectra of the trapped heavy ions have been calculated based upon the anomalous component observed in the IPM.
