Description
In this talk we will briefly review the possible sources and the production mechanisms of cosmic rays. The detector layout will be described, together with the analysis techniques for cosmic ray measure- ments. The fluxes of cosmic rays measured by AMS will be presented, and the phenomenological implications of these measurements will be discussed.
