Description

Abstract:

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer Experiment (AMS) is a large international collaboration led by Nobel Laureate Samuel Ting. The AMS detector is an unique large spectrometer in space. AMS is continually collecting data since it’s launch in May 2011 and has collected more than 190 Billion cosmic ray events. The main physics topics of AMS are the origin of dark matter, antimatter and cosmic rays. A series of unexpected results had been published by the AMS collaboration which are not predicted by any of the theory. This presentation will report latest results from the AMS experiment.

Biography:

Zuhao LI, Professor of the Institute of High Energy Physics, group leader of IHEP AMS project. IHEP contactor person at CERN. Joined AMS collaboration from the beginning of AMS-02 project, responsible for the ECAL operation, calibration and data reconstruction. Focus on the physics topics related on the study of dark matter, and the origin of cosmic rays, made important contribution on the measurements of cosmic ray positrons, electrons, antiprotons, as well as cosmic ray nuclei.
