The discovery of geomagnetically trapped cosmic ray antiprotons

O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino, G. A. Bazilevskaya +61

The existence of a significant flux of antiprotons confined to Earth's magnetosphere has been considered in several theoretical works. These antiparticles are produced in nuclear i…

The cosmic-ray electron flux measured by the PAMELA experiment between 1 and 625 GeV

PAMELA Collaboration, O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino +64

Precision measurements of the electron component in the cosmic radiation provide important information about the origin and propagation of cosmic rays in the Galaxy. Here we presen…

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…

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…
