Abstract

The PAMELA experiment on the study of cosmic rays in a wide energy range was performed onboard the Resurs-DK1 spacecraft from June 2006 to February 2016. The data on antiproton fluxes in the near-Earth space play an important role for this field of physics. Their detection by the PAMELA spectrometer is possible using two independent detectors: the track system in a magnetic field and the position-sensitive calorimeter (in the low-energy region
