  3. Data and data analysis: PAMELA

  4. 353 • stand-alone trigger in calorimeter  GF: 20  600 cm2sr  3000 ev in 5y • reconstruction by multistep fitting • isotropy map creation (5°x5°)

  5. 383 • Work in progress on identification capability for light nuclei isotopes with multiple de/dx in cal. • expect provide new data of 6Li, 7Li, 7Be and 9Be, separation 9Be-10Be seems possible

  6. 452 et al. • DRD model fit better e+ flux at low energies • PD and DR models fail to describe data

  7. 473 TOF stand-alone Calorimeter stand-alone Slow-down effect

  8. 477 • Improvements of the d identification  enhanced p suppression + decrease systematics • improvements: truncated mean values of de/dx in tracker + added de/dx in 6 TOF counters

  9. 641 • PAMELA covers full sky search for global anisotropies possible • search at large scale anisotropies (30°-90°) for e- and e+ with E>40 GeV + around SUN direction • preliminary: arrival directions consistent with isotropic expectation

  10. 643 • L-shell 1.12-1.5 available for PAMELA, peak of pitch-angular distribution is narrow • angular resolution <4°, e>60 MeV, 5 year statistics • measured quasitrapped on boundary of rad belts ane HE (>1GeV) trapped and quasi-trapped • - result: p, e-, e+ local and equatorial pitch-angular distributions

  11. 659 • Antip selection with Multivariate analysis • increased statistics (2800 antip) and energy range

  12. Data and data analysis: other

  13. 389 • Data with zenith<15° and core in 40x40 m2, correlation with pressure and temperature • CR generated in 100 GeV-4PeV, shower simulated by CORSIKA • medium energy p 4.5-56 TeV, He 9-90 TeV

  14. 476

  15. Arrival direction  information on source distribution + propagation medium + diffusion • anisotropy 10-4-10-3 in TeV CR arrival direction in angular scalea 10°-180° • new details of CR distribution in 10°-70°

  16. 456 (Z=16-24)/Fe (Ti+V+Cr)/Fe • Upturn can be understood with CG+B (B: bubble with embedded sources) model • Upturn near 200-300 GeV/n predicted but index 2.5

  17. 536 -Continous operation of ‘Doch-4M,A’ could not reproduce ‘Erzions’ found in Doch-4 in 1999 - many material used to convert neutral Erzions in charged detectable Erzions - New device used in 2012 once was not able to reproduce previous results
