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…
Cross-calibration of the Transition Radiation Detector of AMS-02 for an Energy Measurement of Cosmic-Ray Ions
Andreas Obermeier, Michael Korsmeier
Since May 2011 the AMS-02 experiment is installed on the International Space Station and is observing cosmic radiation. It consists of several state-of-the-art sub-detectors, which…
Interactions of Cosmic Rays in the Atmosphere: Growth Curves Revisited
A. Obermeier, P. Boyle, J. Hörandel +1
Measurements of cosmic-ray abundances on balloons are affected by interactions in the residual atmosphere above the balloon. Corrections for such interactions are particularly impo…
The boron-to-carbon abundance ratio and Galactic propagation of cosmic radiation
A. Obermeier, P. Boyle, J. Hörandel +1
In two long-duration balloon flights in 2003 and 2006, the TRACER cosmic-ray detector has measured the energy spectra and the absolute intensities of the cosmic-ray nuclei from bor…
Energy spectra of primary and secondary cosmic-ray nuclei measured with TRACER
A. Obermeier, M. Ave, P. Boyle +3
The TRACER cosmic-ray detector, first flown on long-duration balloon (LDB) in 2003 for observations of the major primary cosmic-ray nuclei from oxygen (Z=8) to iron (Z=26), has bee…
Temperature and Humidity Dependence of Air Fluorescence Yield measured by AIRFLY
M. Ave
The fluorescence detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays requires a detailed knowledge of the fluorescence light emission from nitrogen molecules over a wide range of atmospheri…
