An excess of cosmic ray electrons at energies of 300-800 GeV
Jin Chang,James H. Adams,H. S. Ahn,G. L. Bashindzhagyan,M. Christl,O. Ganel,T. G. Guzik,Joachim Isbert,K. C. Kim,E. N. Kuznetsov,M. I. Panasyuk,Alexander D. Panov,Wolfgang Schmidt,Eun-Suk Seo,N. V. Sokolskaya,John W. Watts,John P. Wefel,J. Wu,V. I. Zatsepin +18 more
TL;DR: An excess of galactic cosmic-ray electrons at energies of ∼300–800 GeV is reported, which indicates a nearby source of energetic electrons, or the electrons could arise from the annihilation of dark matter particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
First Halley multicolour camera imaging results from Giotto
H. U. Keller,C. Arpigny,Cesare Barbieri,R. M. Bonnet,S. Cazes,M. Coradini,C. B. Cosmovici,W. A. Delamere,W. F. Huebner,David W. Hughes,C. Jamar,D. Malaise,Harold J. Reitsema,H. U. Schmidt,Wolfgang Schmidt,P. Seige,Fred L. Whipple,Klaus Wilhelm +17 more
TL;DR: The Giotto spacecraft's Halley multicolor camera imaging results have furnished flyby images that are centered on the brightest part of the inner coma; these show the silouette of a large, solid and irregularly shaped cometary nucleus and jetlike dust activity as mentioned in this paper.

Energy spectra of abundant nuclei of primary cosmic rays from the data of ATIC-2 experiment: Final results
Alexander D. Panov,James H. Adams,H. S. Ahn,G. L. Bashinzhagyan,John W. Watts,J. P. Wefel,Jian Wu,O. Ganel,T. G. Guzik,V. I. Zatsepin,I. Isbert,K. C. Kim,M. Christl,E. N. Kouznetsov,M. I. Panasyuk,Eun-Suk Seo,N. V. Sokolskaya,Jin Chang,Jin Chang,Wolfgang Schmidt,A. R. Fazely +20 more
TL;DR: The final results of processing the data from the balloon-born experiment ATIC-2 (Antarctica, 2002-2003) for the energy spectra of protons and He, C, O, Ne, Mg, Si, and Fe nuclei, the spectrum of all particles, and the mean logarithm of primary cosmic rays as a function of energy are presented in this article.
