477
-Improvements of the d identification enhanced p suppression + decrease systematics- improvements: truncated mean values of de/dx in tracker + added de/dx in 6 TOF counters
641
-PAMELA covers full sky search for global anisotropies possible- search at large scale anisotropies (30°-90°) for e- and e+ with E>40 GeV + around SUN direction- preliminary: arrival directions consistent with isotropic expectation
643
-L-shell 1.12-1.5 available for PAMELA, peak of pitch-angular distribution is narrow- angular resolution <4°, e>60 MeV, 5 year statistics- measured quasitrapped on boundary of rad belts ane HE (>1GeV) trapped and quasi-trapped-- result: p, e-, e+ local and equatorial pitch-angular distributions
659

Data and data analysis:other
389
-Data with zenith<15° and core in 40x40 m2, correlation with pressure and temperature- CR generated in 100 GeV-4PeV, shower simulated by CORSIKA- medium energy p 4.5-56 TeV, He 9-90 TeV
476
-Arrival direction information on source distribution + propagation medium + diffusion- anisotropy 10-4-10-3 in TeV CR arrival direction in angular scalea 10°-180°- new details of CR distribution in 10°-70°
456
(Ti+V+Cr)/Fe (Z=16-24)/Fe
-Upturn can be understood with CG+B (B: bubble with embedded sources) model- Upturn near 200-300 GeV/n predicted but index 2.5
536
-Continous operation of ‘Doch-4M,A’ could not reproduce ‘Erzions’ found in Doch-4 in 1999- many material used to convert neutral Erzions in charged detectable Erzions- New device used in 2012 once was not able to reproduce previous results
537

733
- In Aragats a group of 4e/3 charge events with HE (>80GeV)- In ATIC-2 ‘additional events’ with ionization 0.53 of proton

527
-Prototype of PRISMA project, run on the NEVOD basis- 32 new type ‘en.detectors’ sensitive to em component and hadrons (through thermal n).thin inorganic scintillator (ZnS(Ag) + LiF enriched with 6Li) sensitive to thermal n (fast response, 50 photoelectron per n-capture)- Seeking EAS core position, size (Nn) and age (using em component)
319
- Can identify possible signatures from nearly SNRs (e.g. Vela) in e spectrum-Has the potential to detect e and gamma signals from dark matter annihilation/decayWith excellent energy resolution 2%-Can measure the spectra of individual elements in CRs with unprecedented accuracyApproaching the ‘knee’ region-Ultra heavy nuclei up to Z=40 in 5 y- B/C up to 5TeV/n (5y)

-Low/moderate solar activity in June 2011: used to investigate response large modular CR det.- smart design: assembling new CR monitors with He counters in different length- registered intensity well accounts for the macro prturbations in near Earth Space
556
-New kind of track-pits, with specific pit-form and very small size- CN-85 exposed on satellite in 1995- considered very short (<3m) tracks (solar protons and stopping recoil nuclei)- from layer-to-layer investigation: a three of pit swarm correlated with the endof the track formed by high ionizinf primary charged particles (stopping ofoegative charged Herzions?)

Deployed on ISS and taking data from May 2011- tracker: expected behavior, stable on temperature, pedestals, noise

- 3 well known counters BP28 + 12 new model LND2061- Preliminary: the two types are compatible- New acquisition board used
541
-Study of EAS offers a unique way to extract p-air interaction cross section-Pointed out some limitation of standard technique-New approach involving simultaneous measurement of absorption of EAS and attenuation of electron component is proposed

- GEANT4 simulation framework PLANETOCOSMICS- Good agreement with Data
724
- One half of p events had no track in the EC-New geometrical reconstruction tested on ¼ of events-Both methods give the same result-An unknown component could be present in the primary particle flux-Processing of additional events necessary to obtain significant data
