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

Optical properties of deep glacial ice at the South Pole

Markus Ackermann, +116 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used pulsed and continuous light sources embedded with the AMANDA neutrino telescope, an array of more than six hundred photomultiplier tubes buried deep in the ice.
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

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

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.
