CREAM for high energy composition measurements
Ground-based indirect measurements have shown that the cosmic-ray all- particle spectrum extends many orders of magnitude beyond the energy thought possible for supernova acceleration. Our balloon-borne Cosmic Ray Energetics And Mass (CREAM) experiment is capable of extending direct measurements of...
