title = "Measurements of primary and atmospheric cosmic-ray spectra with the BESS-TeV spectrometer",
abstract = "Primary and atmospheric cosmic-ray spectra were precisely measured with the BESS-TeV spectrometer. The spectrometer was upgraded from BESS-98 to achieve seven times higher resolution in momentum measurement. We report absolute fluxes of primary protons and helium nuclei in the energy ranges, 1-540 GeV and 1-250 GeV/n, respectively, and absolute flux of atmospheric muons in the momentum range 0.6-400 GeV/c.",

note = "Funding Information: The authors thank NASA and the National Scientific Balloon Facility for their professional and skillful work in carrying out the BESS flight. They deeply thank ISAS and KEK for their continuous support and encouragement for the BESS experiment. They would especially like to thank Doctor T. Taniguchi for his kind advice and cooperation to develop the drift chambers. This experiment was supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (12047206 and 12047227) from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sport, Science and Technology, Japan, and was supported by NASA, USA.",
