The imprint of large-scale structure on the ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray sky
Original language description
Ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are atomic nuclei from space with vastly higher energies than any other particles ever observed. Their origin and chemical composition remain a mystery. As we show here, the large and intermediate angular scale anisotropies observed by the Pierre Auger Observatory are a powerful tool for understanding the origin of UHECRs. Without specifying any particular production mechanism but only postulating that the source distribution follows the matter distribution of the local universe, a good accounting of the magnitude, direction, and energy dependence of the dipole anisotropy at energies above 8 x 10(18) eV is obtained after taking into account the impact of energy losses during propagation (the “GZK horizon”), diffusion in the extragalactic magnetic field, and deflections in the Galactic magnetic field (GMF).
