Recent results from CALET on the International Space Station
ORAL
Abstract
The Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) is an astroparticle physics telescope deployed on the International Space Station (ISS) since August 2015. The primary instrument is a 30 radiation-length deep electromagnetic calorimeter sensitive to cosmic-ray electrons in the range from 1 GeV to above 10 TeV and cosmic-ray hadrons up to PeV total energies. We present here an overview of the results after 7 years of stable, continuous operation, focusing on results published in the past year.
