摘要：

This paper summarizes the performance characteristics of the balloon-borne magnet spectrometer operated by New Mexico State University's Particle Astrophysics Laboratory. Particular emphasis has been placed on the rigidity resolution, including both random and systematic errors of the magnetic spectrometer system. Measurement of the performance characteristics has been greatly enhanced through the use of an imaging calorimeter as an independent aid in the identification of cosmic rays.
