Scientific paper

We present a measurement of the cosmic-ray Antiproton/Proton ratio as a function of energy using the High-Energy Antimatter Telescope balloon-borne instrument (HEAT). This detector utilizes multiple ionization measurements and a magnet spectrometer to provide particle identification, momentum, and charge sign determination. The data was obtained from a flight of the HEAT detector in the spring of 2000 from Ft. Sumner, NM. Preliminary results for the energy-dependent antiproton fraction will be compared with recent predictions based on the observed abundance of secondary light elements in the cosmic rays.
