Precision Measurements of Neon, Magnesium, and Silicon Flux in Cosmic Rays with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station

Precise measurements of primary cosmic ray Neon, Magnesium and Silicon flux is important to understand the origins and propagation properties of heavy elements in the Galaxy. This thesis presents the measurements of Neon, Magnesium, and Silicon flux in the rigidity (momentum per unit charge) range f...
