Scientific paper

Two very important open items in modern physics are the existence of Dark Matter and free quarks. A search for slow-moving charged massive (SCM) particles (104 < m < 1010 GeV and β = 10-4 ÷ 10-2 ) and free fractional charges (q = 2/3e) among Cosmic Rays has been performed with the AMS detector, using a special set of data taken during the first flight of June 1998. The analysis and the limits on the fluxes of SCM particles (Flux ≤ 1.5·10-6 cm-2 s-1 sr-1 ) and free quarks (Flux ≤ 3.1 · 10-6 cm-2 s-1 sr-1 ) are presented.
