Abstract

The PAMELA magnetic spectrometer on board the Resurs-DK1 satellite was launched into an elliptical quasipolar Earth orbit with altitudes of 350–600 km and an inclination of ~70° to study the fluxes of cosmic ray particles and antiparticles in a wide range of energies (~50 MeV to hundreds of GeV). Results are presented from observing electron and positron fluxes at energies above 50 MeV between 2006 and 2016.
