    Description: A new detector for cosmic-ray electrons, consisting of a combination of a transition-radiation detector and a shower detector, has been constructed, calibrated at accelerator beams, and exposed in a balloon flight under 5 g/sq cm of atmosphere. The design of this instrument and the methods of data analysis are described. Preliminary results in the energy range 9-300 GeV are presented. The energy spectrum of electrons is found to be significantly steeper than that of protons, consistent with a long escape lifetime of cosmic rays in the galaxy.

    Description: A summary of 40 papers on the elemental composition of cosmic rays and cosmic ray electrons is presented. Attention is given to experimental results concerning the 'anomalous component' of low energy cosmic radiation, the composition of ultraheavy cosmic rays, the energy dependence of cosmic ray composition at high energies (between 1 and 100 GeV/nucleon), and the energy spectrum of high-energy electrons.

    Description: A recent measurement of the spectrum of cosmic-ray electrons has provided statistically significant evidence for a spectral shape that is much steeper than that of protons. The electron spectrum does not fit well to a single power law, and the abundance of electrons relative to that of protons decreases from approximately 1% at 10 GeV to approximately 0.1% at 300 GeV. This result is consistent with a galactic escape lifetime for electrons exceeding 10 million years. The data are discussed in light of current models for the propagation of cosmic rays in the Galaxy, and conclusions are drawn concerning the consistency of various models with the observations.
