DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Sergey Koldashov (MEPhI)\, Vladimir Mikhailov (NRNU 
 MEPHI)\nThe space experiment SONYA is designed to detect cosmic positrons 
 and electrons through their synchrotron x-ray emission in the Earth magnet
 ic field. The proposed instrument  can identify the sign and determine the
  energy of TeV electrons and positrons. Modern magnetic spectrometers aren
 't able to measure  positrons above several hundreds GeV. Simulation of th
 e instrument were performed. Advantages of the method  are high proton bac
 kground rejection and increase of effective area of the instrument with en
 ergy.  As estimation shows  the proposed experiment  with size about 1m^2 
 will detect several tens of TeV  positrons  per year\n\nhttps://indico.par
