Description
The ARGO-YBJ experiment, located at Yangbajing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (Tibet, 4300 m a.s.l., 606 g/cm^2 ) has an high segmentation that allows the detection of air showers with greater granularity and lower energy threshold than other EAS-arrays. The spectrum of the primary Cosmic Rays light (p+He) component in the energy range ~10 - 100 TeV is measured selecting vertical showers with the reconstructed core position located in a 40×40 m^2 fiducial area. The results are compared with other measurements carried out with direct methods.
