/AMS
Knowledge of the rigidity dependence of the boron to carbon flux ratio (B/C) is important in understanding the propagation of cosmic rays. The precise measurement of the B/C ratio from 1.9 GV to 2.6 TV, based on 2.3 million boron and 8.3 million carbon nuclei collected by AMS during the first 5 years of operation, is presented. [...]

We report the observation of new properties of primary cosmic rays He, C, and O measured in the rigidity (momentum/charge) range 2 GV to 3 TV with 90×106 helium, 8.4×106 carbon, and 7.0×106 oxygen nuclei collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) during the first five years of operation. Above 60 GV, these three spectra have identical rigidity dependence. [...]

Towards Understanding the Origin of Cosmic-Ray Positrons
/ Aguilar, M (Madrid, CIEMAT) ; Ali Cavasonza, L (IAS, Julich ; JCHP, Julich) ; Ambrosi, G (INFN, Perugia) ; Arruda, L (LIP, Lisbon) ; Attig, N (IAS, Julich ; JCHP, Julich) ; Azzarello, P (Geneva U.) ; Bachlechner, A (IAS, Julich ; JCHP, Julich) ; Barao, F (LIP, Lisbon) ; Barrau, A (LPSC, Grenoble) ; Barrin, L (CERN) et al.
/AMS
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..
