A Silicon Beam Tracker
J. H. Han, H. S. Ahn, J. B. Bae +17
When testing and calibrating particle detectors in a test beam, accurate tracking information independent of the detector being tested is extremely useful during the offline analys…
Ultra-heavy cosmic-ray science--Are r-process nuclei in the cosmic rays produced in supernovae or binary neutron star mergers?
W. R. Binns, M. H. Israel, B. F. Rauch +25
The recent detection of 60Fe in the cosmic rays provides conclusive evidence that there is a recently synthesized component (few MY) in the GCRs (Binns et al. 2016). In addition, t…
Proton and Helium Spectra from the CREAM-III Flight
Y. S. Yoon, T. Anderson, A. Barrau +22
Primary cosmic-ray elemental spectra have been measured with the balloon-borne Cosmic Ray Energetics And Mass (CREAM) experiment since 2004. The third CREAM payload (CREAM-III) fle…
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…
The Nature and Origin of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Ray Particles
Peter L. Biermann, Laurentiu I. Caramete, Federico Fraschetti +9
We outline two concepts to explain Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs), one based on radio galaxies and their relativistic jets and terminal hot spots, and one based on relativi…
Measurements of cosmic-ray proton and helium spectra from the BESS-Polar long-duration balloon flights over Antarctica
K. Abe, H. Fuke, S. Haino +34
The BESS-Polar Collaboration measured the energy spectra of cosmic-ray protons and helium during two long-duration balloon flights over Antarctica in December 2004 and December 200…
