Abstract
The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) is a satellite-borne particle detector launched on December 17th, 2015, with different scientific objectives, looking for signatures of Dark Matter decay or annihilation, performing gamma-ray astronomy and providing precise measurements of galactic Cosmic Ray (CR) energy spectra. Accurate measurements of hadronic interaction cross sections, playing a key role in the determination of CR fluxes. The survival probabilities have been implemented to study hadronic interaction cross sections with the BGO calorimeter target for Carbon nuclei in a wide kinetic energy range from a few GeV to TeV, by using data collected by the DAMPE experiment. The results have been then compared with Geant4 simulations of the interaction cross-sections performed by adopting the Glauber–Gribov Model. The details of the measured hadronic interaction cross sections are here presented and discussed.
