International audience The Cosmic Ray Energetics And Mass balloon-borne experiment has accumulated 70 days of exposure during two successful flights in Antarctica. The instrument is configured with complementary and redundant particle detectors. Energy measurements are made with a transition radiation detector and an ionization calorimeter. Charge measurements are made with timing, pixelated Si, and Cherenkov detectors to provide powerful rejection of backscatter particles. High energy cosmic-ray data from the first two flights were collected over a wide energy range from ~ 10 GeV to ~ 1 PeV at an average altitude of ~38.5 km (~3.9 g/cm2 atmospheric overburden). Preliminary analysis indicates the data extend well above 100 TeV and follow reasonable power laws. All elements from protons to Fe nuclei are separated with excellent charge resolution. The payload recovered from the first flight has been refurbished and is being integrated in preparation for the third launch, scheduled for December 2007.
