Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of the highest-energy cosmic rays with nearby extragalactic objects.

J. Abraham, +452 more
- 09 Nov 2007 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that there is a correlation between the arrival directions of cosmic rays with energy above 6 x 10{sup 19} eV and the positions of active galactic nuclei lying within 75 Mpc.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of the suppression of the flux of cosmic rays above 4x10(19) eV

J. Abraham, +488 more
TL;DR: The energy spectrum of cosmic rays above 2.5 x 10;{18} eV, derived from 20,000 events recorded at the Pierre Auger Observatory, is described and the hypothesis of a single power law is rejected with a significance greater than 6 standard deviations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Pierre Auger Cosmic Ray Observatory

A. Aab, +643 more
TL;DR: The Pierre Auger Observatory as mentioned in this paper, the world's largest cosmic ray observatory, has been in successful operation since completion in 2008 and has recorded data from an exposure exceeding 40,000 km$^2$ sr yr.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of the energy spectrum of cosmic rays above 10(18) eV using the Pierre Auger Observatory

J. Abraham, +492 more
- 08 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported a measurement of the flux of cosmic rays with unprecedented precision and statistics using the Pierre Auger Observatory based on fluorescence observations in coincidence with at least one surface detector.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depth of maximum of air-shower profiles at the Pierre Auger Observatory. I. Measurements at energies above 10(17.8) eV

A. Aab, +514 more
- 31 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a study of the distributions of the depth of maximum, X-max, of extensive air-shower profiles with energies above 10(17.8) eV was performed with the fluorescence telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory.
