The AMS-02 detector is operating on the International Space Station (ISS) since May the 19th, 2011. More than 80 billion events have been collected by the instrument in the first 5 years of data taking. This unprecedented amount of data is being used to perform accurate measurements of the different Cosmic Rays components. In this contribution, the published results and the highlights of the...

The DAMPE (DArk Matter Particle Explorer) satellite was launched on December 17, 2015 and is in smooth data taking since few days after. It was designed in order to properly work for at least three years and, thanks to its large geometric factor (about 0.3 m2 sr for protons and nuclei), is integrating one of the largest exposure for galactic cosmic ray studies in space. Even if primarly...

241. High-Energy Emission from Starburst Galaxies

Detection of high-energy gamma-ray emission from starburst galaxies (such as nearby M82 and NGC 253, and faraway Arp 220) has established a direct link between leptonic and hadronic processes in an extragalactic non-AGN environment. We review the most relevant aspects of these processes,and contrast theoretical predictions with available radio and gamma-ray measurements, in order to determine...
