The Pierre Auger Collaboration

Martin Will, +494 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Pierre Auger Collaboration has reported evidence for anisotropies in the arrival directions of cosmic rays with energies larger thanEth = 55 EeV and showed that there is a correlation above the isotropic expectation with nearby active galaxies and the largest excess is in a celestial region around the position of the radio galaxy Cen A.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of the highest-energy cosmic rays with the positions of nearby active galactic nuclei

J. Abraham, +483 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Pierre Auger Observatory data was used to confirm the anisotropy of the arrival direction of the highest-energy cosmic rays with the highest energy, which are correlated with the positions of relatively nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN) at a confidence level of more than 99%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Update on the correlation of the highest energy cosmic rays with nearby extragalactic matter

P. Abreu, +495 more
TL;DR: In this paper, anisotropy was measured by the fraction of arrival directions that are less than 3.1 degrees from the position of an active galactic nucleus within 75 Mpc (using the Veron-Cetty and Veron 12th catalog).
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of a large-scale anisotropy in the arrival directions of cosmic rays above 8 × 1018 eV

A. Aab, +418 more
- 22 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: The Pierre Auger Collaboration reports the observation of thousands of cosmic rays with ultrahigh energies of several exa–electron volts, arriving in a slightly dipolar distribution, showing that they originate outside the Milky Way Galaxy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Fluorescence Detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory

J. Abraham, +529 more
TL;DR: The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays as discussed by the authors, which combines a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level together with a fluorescence detector to measure the development of air showers in the atmosphere above the array.
