Description

The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) is a satellite launched in December 2015. Its primary scientific goals include the study of Galactic Cosmic-Rays (GCR) up to hundreds of TeV. Even higher energies could be reached by the High Energy cosmic Radiation Detector (HERD) that is planned to be installed onboard the Chinese Space Station (CSS) in 2027, aiming to detect CR up to a few PeV energy. In the talk, the latest results from DAMPE will be reviewed and the prospects of the HERD mission will be discussed.
