Abstract
The ARGO-YBJ experiment is taking data at the Yangbajing International Cosmic Rays Observatory located at an altitude of about 4300 m a.s.l. (Tibet, P.R. China). The detector consists of an EAS array made of a full coverage RPCs carpet. In this paper the light component cosmic ray spectrum in the energy region 1–300 TeV is presented, these results allow the comparison between satellite and balloon–borne data with ground based measurements. The measured intensities obtained in this work are in good agreement with the recent CREAM measurements and show a spectrum flatter than the low energy measurementsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
