Scientific paper

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a particle physics experiment scheduled to be installed on the International Space Station (ISS). The purpose of this experiment is to provide a high statistics measurement of charged particles and nuclei in rigidity range 0.5GV to few TV, and to provide a sensitive search for cosmic antimatter (antihelium) and dark matter, and to study the properties of cosmic rays. The construction of the final detector will be completed by 2004. We describe the detector and the working principles.
