摘要
Results from direct and indirect measurements of cosmic rays are reviewed. Emphasis is given to the understanding of the knee in the energy spectrum. The data are compared to contemporary models for the knee. Implications on the present understanding of the origin of galactic cosmic rays are discussed.
