Description

The CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) installed on the International Space Station has multiple event trigger modes for measuring cosmic-ray (CR) particles and gamma rays, and the observations of the low-energy CRs have been successfully performed by a Low-Energy Electron (LEE) shower trigger mode that is active only at high geomagnetic latitude. Continuous measurements of low-energy CRs with LEE trigger of the CALET have detected the charge sign dependence of the solar modulation. In this talk, we present the latest results of the low-energy electron fluxes observed by CALET during the descending phase of the solar cycle 24. We also present the long-term variations of count rates of the CR electrons and protons, discussing the charge sign dependence of the solar modulation.
