description | The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a general-purpose high-energy particle detector that was deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) on May 19, 2011 to perform a unique long-duration mission of fundamental physics research from space. Among the scientific goals of AMS are the search for Dark Matter and Antimatter, the study of the propagation of cosmic rays and the exploration of new scientific phenomena that cannot be achieved on ground-based experiments. After ten years of operation in space, AMS has collected more than 180 billion cosmic ray events and provided accurate measurements of electrons, positrons, protons, antiprotons, and nuclei with energies of several TeV during nearly a complete solar cycle. |
