The properties of four potential sources for energetic ions and electrons in the magnetosheath are considered: upstream Fermi acceleration and shock drift acceleration of incident solar wind particles at the bow shock, acceleration of magnetosheath ions through merging at the magnetopause, and escape from the magnetosphere. A review of previous observations suggests that the magnetosphere is the dominant source of the magnetosheath energetic particle population. Despite recent work to the contrary, it is questioned whether energetic particle observations alone provide any evidence for merging at the dayside magnetopause.
