Project results evaluation
Czech participation in the Pierre Auger Observatory in period 2008-2012 contributed significantly to production and installation of additional telescopes. The observatory detects cosmic rays of the highest energy with unprecedented statistics. Many papers about anisotropy of cosmic rays, energy spectrum and composition were published with the participation of Czech physicist and students.
