Description

We present a measurement of the inclusive cosmic-ray electron and positron (CRE) spectrum between 7 GeV and 2 TeV performed with almost seven years of data collected with the Fermi Large Area Telescope. The spectrum above 100 GeV can explore the properties of local CRE sources. Because of the long live time and the very large acceptance of the LAT, our data are the largest CRE sample available to date, with ~ 10k events above 1 TeV. In this talk I will present the results of the analysis and discuss some possible implications.
