Measurement of cosmic-ray low-energy antiproton spectrum with the first BESS-Polar Antarctic flight
K. Abe, H. Fuke, S. Haino +27
The BESS-Polar spectrometer had its first successful balloon flight over Antarctica in December 2004. During the 8.5-day long-duration flight, almost 0.9 billion events were record…
Measurements of 0.2 to 20 GeV/n cosmic-ray proton and helium spectra from 1997 through 2002 with the BESS spectrometer
Y. Shikaze, S. Haino, K. Abe +21
We measured low energy cosmic-ray proton and helium spectra in the kinetic energy range 0.215 - 21.5 GeV/n at different solar activities during a period from 1997 to 2002. The obse…
Measurements of Atmospheric Antiprotons
K. Yamato, K. Abe, H. Fuke +21
We measured atmospheric antiproton spectra in the energy range 0.2 to 3.4 GeV, at sea level and at balloon altitude in the atmospheric depth range 4.5 to 26 g/cm^2. The observed en…
Beam Test of a Prototype Detector Array for the PoGO Astronomical Hard X-Ray/Soft Gamma-Ray Polarimeter
T. Mizuno, T. Kamae, J. S. T. Ng +6
Polarization measurements in the X-ray and gamma-ray energy range can provide crucial information on massive compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars. The Polarized Ga…
Observing the Ultrahigh Energy Universe with OWL Eyes
F. W. Stecker, J. F. Krizmanic, L. M. Barbier +4
The goal of the Orbiting Wide-field Light-collectors (OWL) mission is to study the origin and physics of the highest energy particles known in nature, the ultrahigh energy cosmic r…
Measurements of Proton, Helium and Muon Spectra at Small Atmospheric Depths with the BESS Spectrometer
K. Abe, T. Sanuki, K. Anraku +32
The cosmic-ray proton, helium, and muon spectra at small atmospheric depths of 4.5 -- 28 g/cm^2 were precisely measured during the slow descending period of the BESS-2001 balloon f…
