Abstract

To date, very little has been done in the field of research of the nuclei cosmic ray spectra in the energy range between 1 and 10 TeV per nucleon and especially there were even fewer direct measurements in space. The PAMELA experiment (Casolini et al., 2008) has a possibility to make progress in this range. The method of the measurement of the helium and proton cosmic ray spectra with the energy higher than 50 GeV/nucleon was developed mainly with the use of the PAMELA calorimeter. This analysis method and the results obtained based on 3 years of measurements are presented.
