Abstract
The study of flux ratios of cosmic-ray primary elements is of particular interest not only to assess the relative abundance of each element, but also to gain a deeper understanding of their propagation in the galaxy. High energy cosmic ray data are the best candidate for this purpose as convection, nuclear decay, and energy degradation can be neglected during their propagation. CALET on the International Space Station has been measuring the flux of several primary elements from proton to nickel for 7 years to date. In this contribution, the flux ratios of heavy primary elements to lighter primaries will be shown, extending the energy range already investigated by previous measurements.
