Search for Light-Mass Fractionally Charged Particles in Space with DAMPE Experiment

F. Alemanno, Q. An, P. Azzarello +144

Free Fractionally Charged Particles (FCPs) are predicted by some theories beyond or extended to the standard model. FCPs have been widely searched for by underground and space-base…

Diverse properties of electron Forbush decreases revealed by the Dark Matter Particle Explorer

F. Alemanno, Q. An, P. Azzarello +147

The Forbush decrease (FD) of cosmic rays is an important probe of the interplanetary environment disturbed by solar activities. In this work, we study the properties of 8 FDs elect…

Measurement of the cosmic ray nickel energy spectrum from 10 GeV/n to 2 TeV/n with the DAMPE

F. Alemanno, Q. An, P. Azzarello +144

Nickel, one of the most tightly bound nuclei alongside iron, is the most abundant heavy element beyond iron in cosmic rays. With DAMPE's excellent charge resolution and broad energ…

Search for relativistic fractionally charged particles in space

DAMPE Collaboration, F. Alemanno, C. Altomare +148

More than a century after the performance of the oil drop experiment, the possible existence of fractionally charged particles FCP still remains unsettled. The search for FCPs is c…

Measurement of the cosmic-ray proton spectrum from 40 GeV to 100 TeV with the DAMPE satellite

Q. An, R. Asfandiyarov, P. Azzarello +151

The precise measurement of the spectrum of protons, the most abundant component of the cosmic radiation, is necessary to understand the source and acceleration of cosmic rays in th…

Direct detection of a break in the teraelectronvolt cosmic-ray spectrum of electrons and positrons

G. Ambrosi, Q. An, R. Asfandiyarov +155

High energy cosmic ray electrons plus positrons (CREs), which lose energy quickly during their propagation, provide an ideal probe of Galactic high-energy processes and may enable…
