英文摘要	With experimental results of AMS on the spectra of cosmic ray (CR) e(-), e(+), e(-) + e(+) and positron fraction, as well as new measurements of CR e(-) + e(+) flux by HESS, one can better understand the CR lepton (e(-) and e(+)) spectra and the puzzling electron-positron excess above similar to 10 GeV. In this article, spectra of CR e(-) and e(+) are fitted with a physically motivated simple model, and their injection spectra are obtained with a 1D propagation model including the diffusion and energy loss processes. Our results show that the electron-positron excess can be attributed to uniformly distributed sources that continuously inject into the galactic disc electron-positron with a power-law spectrum cutting off near 1 TeV and a triple power-law model is needed to fit the primary CR electron spectrum. The lower energy spectral break can be attributed to propagation effects giving rise to a broken power-law injection spectrum of primary CR electrons with a spectral hardening above similar to 40 GeV.
