Description
After thirteen years of operations on board the International Space Station, AMS has performed precise measurements of solar energetic particle (SEP) mostly observed during solar maximum of solar cycle 24 and 25. AMS has collected more than 40 extreme SEP events accelerated during M- and X-class flares and associated with fast coronal mass ejections. AMS detects these SEPs in the GV rigidity range with fine rigidity resolution at percent level accuracy. A summary of these events, with details on the latest SEPs observed in 2024, will be presented.
