Observation of an anomalous positron abundance in the cosmic radiation
O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino, G. A. Bazilevskaya +48
Positrons are known to be produced in interactions between cosmic-ray nuclei and interstellar matter ("secondary production"). Positrons may, however, also be created by dark matte…
First Results from the PAMELA Space Mission
M. Boezio, V. Bonvicini, G. Jerse +53
On the 15th of June 2006, the PAMELA satellite-borne experiment was launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome and it has been collecting data since July 2006. The apparatus comprises a…
A new measurement of the antiproton-to-proton flux ratio up to 100 GeV in the cosmic radiation
O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino, G. A. Bazilevskaya +50
A new measurement of the cosmic ray antiproton-to-proton flux ratio between 1 and 100 GeV is presented. The results were obtained with the PAMELA experiment, which was launched int…
Detection of the high energy component of Jovian electrons in Low Earth Orbit with the PAMELA experiment
M. Casolino, N. De Simone, V. Di Felice +1
The PAMELA experiment is devoted to the study of cosmic rays in Low Earth Orbit with an apparatus optimized to perform a precise determination of the galactic antimatter component…
Launch of the Space experiment PAMELA
M. Casolino, P. Picozza, F. Altamura +56
PAMELA is a satellite borne experiment designed to study with great accuracy cosmic rays of galactic, solar, and trapped nature in a wide energy range protons: 80 MeV-700 GeV, elec…
PAMELA - A Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and Light-nuclei Astrophysics
P. Picozza, A. M. Galper, G. Castellini +57
The PAMELA experiment is a satellite-borne apparatus designed to study charged particles in the cosmic radiation with a particular focus on antiparticles. PAMELA is mounted on the…
