Description
In recent years, particle physics detectors deployed in space and on balloon platforms have gathered unprecedented statistics on cosmic rays. These instruments have enabled direct, high-precision measurements of all charged cosmic-ray components (electrons, protons, nuclei, and antiparticles) across an extended energy range. This talk will review recent progress in the field and discuss its implications for our understanding of cosmic-ray physics, highlighting both the remaining open questions and the prospects for future experimental efforts.
