Precision results on cosmic-ray electrons are presented in the energy range from 0.5 GeV to 1.4 TeV based on 28.1×106 electrons collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station. In the entire energy range the electron and positron spectra have distinctly different magnitudes and energy dependences. [...]

Towards Understanding the Origin of Cosmic-Ray Positrons

Precision measurements of cosmic ray positrons by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station are presented up to 1 TeV based on 1.9 million positrons.The positron flux exhibits a significant excess starting from $25.2 \pm 1.8$ GeV followed by a sharp drop-off above $284^{+91}_{-64}$ GeV.In the entire energy range the positron flux is well described by the sum of a diffuse termassociated with low energy secondary positrons produced in the collision of cosmic rays, and a new source term of high energy positrons with a finite energy cutoff. The finite cutoff energy of the source term, $E_s$, is established with a significance of more than $4 \sigma$, and it's value is determined to be $E_s = 810^{+310}_{-180}$ GeV.These experimental data on cosmic ray positrons show that, at high energies, they predominantly originate either from dark matter collisions or from new astrophysical sources..

/AMS
We present high-statistics, precision measurements of the detailed time and energy dependence of the primary cosmic-ray electron flux and positron flux over 79 Bartels rotations from May 2011 to May 2017 in the energy range from 1 to 50 GeV. For the first time, the charge-sign dependent modulation during solar maximum has been investigated in detail by leptons alone. [...]

/AMS
A precise measurement of the proton flux in primary cosmic rays with rigidity (momentum/charge) from 1 GV to 1.8 TV is presented based on 300 million events. Knowledge of the rigidity dependence of the proton flux is important in understanding the origin, acceleration, and propagation of cosmic rays. [...]
