SEARCHES FOR ANISOTROPIES IN THE ARRIVAL DIRECTIONS OF THE HIGHEST ENERGY COSMIC RAYS DETECTED BY THE PIERRE AUGER OBSERVATORY
Original language description
We analyze the distribution of arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory in 10 years of operation. The data set, about three times larger than that used in earlier studies, includes arrival directions with zenith angles up to 80 degrees, thus covering from -90 degrees to +45 degrees in declination. After updating the fraction of events correlating with the active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the Veron-Cetty and Veron catalog, we subject the arrival directions of the data with energies in excess of 40 EeV to different tests for anisotropy. We search for localized excess fluxes, self-clustering of event directions at angular scales up to 30 degrees, and different threshold energies between 40 and 80 EeV. Wethen look for correlations of cosmic rays with celestial structures both in the Galaxy (the Galactic Center and Galactic Plane) and in the local universe (the Super-Galactic Plane). We also examine their correlation with different popula
