The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer has identified four distinct classes of cosmic rays, which could have significant implications for our understanding of cosmic phenomena.

This analysis encompasses 20 different elements, suggesting a more complex origin of cosmic rays than previously thought.

The discoveries may prompt a reevaluation of existing theories regarding the origins and behaviors of cosmic rays, as reported by Phys.org.
