- We review the status of the AMANDA neutrino telescope. We present resultsobtained from the four-string prototype array AMANDA-B4 and describe themethods of track reconstruction and neutrino event separation. We give also firstresults of the analysis of the 10-string detector AMANDA-B10, in particular onatmospheric neutrinos and the search for magnetic monopoles. We sketch thefuture schedule on the way to a cube kilometer telescope at the South Pole,ICECUBE.

- The PAMELA (Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and Light-nuclei Astrophysics) satellite-borne experiment has been collecting data in orbit since July 2006, providing accurate measurements of the energy spectra and composition of the cosmic radiation from a few hundred MeV/n up to hundred GeV/n. This wide interval of measured energies makes PAMELA a unique instrument for Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) observations. Not only does it span the energy range between the ground-based neutron monitor data and the observations of SEPs from space, but also PAMELA carries out the first direct measurements of the composition for the highest energy SEP events, including those causing Ground Level Enhancements (GLEs). PAMELA has registered many SEP events in solar cycle 24 including the 2012 May 17 GLE event (GLE 71), offering unique opportunities to address the question of high-energy SEP origin. Experimental performances and preliminary results on the 2012 May 17 events will be presented. We will discuss the derived particle injection time and compare with other time scales at the Sun including the flare and CME onset times.

- PAMELA has been orbiting the Earth for more than six years, gathering data on solar, galactic and trapped cosmic rays during the time of the last solar minimum. The apparatus comprises a time-of-flight system, a silicon-microstrip magnetic spectrometer, a silicon-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter, an anticoincidence system, a shower tail catcher scintillator and a neutron detector. The combination of these devices allows charged particle and antiparticle identification over a wide energy range and with an unprecedented precision. The quasi-polar orbit of the instrument, with an inclination of 70 degrees, makes it possible to measure low energy particles starting from about 100 MeV/n. In this work we present the time and rigidity dependence of the galactic proton and helium fluxes over the first 4 years of operation during the A < 0 solar minimum of solar cycle 23.

- The PAMELA experiment is carried out on board of satellite the Resurs DK1 since 2006 for precision study of cosmic ray antiparticles. The instrument is equipped with magnetic spectrometer, silicon-tungsten imaging electromagnetic calorimeter, neutron detector which give possibility to separate electron and positron over wide energy range up to hundreds GeVs and to measure their incoming direction with accuracy about 2 degree. For each detected particle a space arriving direction was reconstructed using trajectory inside the instrument and the satellite position on the orbit. Backtracking in geomagnetic field was done to obtain initial spatial distribution of particles outside of the Earth magnetosphere. This paper discuss a result of search a possible local sources by anisotropy analysis of positron data.

- Imaging calorimeter of the PAMELA instrument on board the Resurs DK satellite has high spatial resolution and allows to measure separately electromagnetic showers from electrons and positrons and their bremsstahlung produced in ToF detectors of the instrument. Measuring events with two showers provides proton rejection coefficient more than 104 at energy between 0.5 and 3 GeV. Results of positrons fractions obtained by this method are in agreement with previously published data of the PAMELA experiment at low energy. It confirms in independent way strong positron modulation during period of negative polarity of the Sun magnetic field.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The satellite-borne PAMELA experiment has been continuously collecting data since 15th June 2006, when it was launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome to detect the charged component of cosmic rays over a wide energy range and with an unprecedented statistics. The apparatus design is particularly suited for particle and antiparticle identification. The satellite quasi-polar orbit, with an inclination of 70 degrees, allows particles to be measure down to 100 MeV/n. This makes the instrument suited for the investigation of phenomena related to galactic cosmic ray solar modulation in the inner heliosphere. Data for oppositely charged particles were collected from 2006 to 2009, during the A< 0 solar minimum of solar cycle 23. The time and rigidity dependence of galactic cosmic ray electron and positron fluxes were measured. These fluxes provide important information for the study of charge dependent solar modulation effects.
