(My apology if there already is a thread regarding the newly launched AMS-02, I didn't find it.)
As I am sure most of you know the (second) Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer has been successfuly launched into orbit and is on its way to the ISS. I have two questions for any people here who are informed on this topic:
1) When could we (the general public) expect the first reliable results to be published from the findings?
2) The mass media actually painted the importance of AMS-02s mission to be comparable with the paradigm shifts of Newton and Einstein. To what extent is this assertion justified? Isn't AMS-02 just a more powerful version of AMS-01?
Cheers.
