Abstract

Precise measurements of high energy hadrons have been performed either on balloon-borne or space-borne experiments. The status of the present measurements on H and He, heavier nuclei, isotopes and antiprotons is separately reported. Implications of precise measurements within the framework of models for production and propagation of galactic cosmic rays is discussed. Near future experiments are expected to improve in a significant manner the collected statistics and the energy range covered by present experiments. The results thus obtained will validate current propagation models and accurately constrain their free parameters.
