Precision measurements by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on International Space Station of primary cosmic-ray electron flux in range 0.5 to 700 GeV and positron 500 are presented. The each require a description beyond single power-law spectrum. Both change their behavior at ∼30 but fluxes significantly different magnitude energy dependence. Between 20 200 spectral index is harder than index. determination differing indices versus new observation provides important information origins...

We present a measurement of the cosmic ray (e^{+}+e^{-}) flux in range 0.5 GeV to 1 TeV based on analysis 10.6 million events collected by AMS. The statistics and resolution AMS provide precision flux. is smooth reveals new distinct information.

Abstract In the present paper, a new approach to combine load conditions expressed by power spectral density functions and synthesize them into an equivalent one was presented. This method is based on concept of fatigue damage spectrum system dynamics. It developed design or verify operative durability tests (i.e., tracks), able test payloads transported vehicles, which could be alternative laboratory ones, defined norm. By analyzing acceleration norm measurements (all in terms functions)...

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer AMS-02 [1]-[4] is an astro particle physics experiment running on the International Space Station (ISS; see Figure 1) since May 19, 2011. Its missions include search for antimatter and identification of nature dark matter. AMS silicon tracker only subdetector inside permanent magnet that can detect charge a moving to distinguish anti-particle from (see Table 1 nomenclature).
