Abstract

"Cosmic ray antiprotons provide an important probe for the study of cosmic ray propagation in the interstellar. space and to investigate the existence of Galactic dark matter. The ARGO-YBJ experiment is observing the. Moon shadow with high statistical significance at an energy threshold of a few hundred GeV. Using all the data. collected until November 2009, we set two upper limits on the ¯p\/p flux ratio: 5% at an energy of 1.4 TeV and 6%. at 5 TeV with a confidence level of 90%. In the few-TeV range the ARGO-YBJ results are the lowest available,. useful to constrain models for antiproton production in antimatter domains."
