Abstract The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a precision particle physics detector on
the International Space Station (ISS) conducting a unique, long-duration mission of …

This review summarizes recent developments in the understanding of high-energy cosmic
rays. It focuses on galactic and presumably extragalactic particles in the energy range from …

A precise measurement of the proton flux in primary cosmic rays with rigidity
(momentum/charge) from 1 GV to 1.8 TV is presented based on 300 million events …

Knowledge of the precise rigidity dependence of the helium flux is important in
understanding the origin, acceleration, and propagation of cosmic rays. A precise …

Protons and helium nuclei are the most abundant components of the cosmic radiation.
Precise measurements of their fluxes are needed to understand the acceleration and …

The knee in the all-particle energy spectrum is scrutinized with a phenomenological model,
named poly-gonato model, linking results from direct and indirect measurements. For this …

ABSTRACT A new study of the diffuse Galactic γ-ray continuum radiation is presented, using
a cosmic-ray propagation model which includes nucleons, antiprotons, electrons, positrons …

▪ Abstract Atmospheric neutrinos produced by cosmic-ray interactions in the atmosphere are
of interest for several reasons. As a beam for studies of neutrino oscillations, they cover a …

We present a study of the compatibility of some current models of the diffuse Galactic
continuum γ-rays with EGRET data. A set of regions sampling the whole sky is chosen to …

On the 15th of June 2006, the PAMELA (Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and Light-
nuclei Astrophysics) satellite-borne experiment was launched onboard the Russian Resurs …
