Precision Measurement of the Proton Flux in Primary Cosmic Rays from 1 GV to 1.8 TV with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station

Cristina Consolandi

A precision measurement of the proton flux in primary cosmic rays with rigidity from 1 GV to 1.8 TV is presented based on 300 million events. The results show that the proton flux…

Discovery of VHE emission towards the Carina arm region with the H.E.S.S. telescope array: HESS J1018-589

HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195

The observational coverage with HESS of the Carina region in VHE gamma-rays benefits from deep exposure (40 h) of the neighboring open cluster Westerlund 2. The observations have r…
