| Opis: | We present the results of a search for small to intermediate
scale anisotropies in the distribution of arrival directions
of ultra-high energy cosmic rays recorded at the Pierre Auger
Observatory. The data set, gathered in ten years of operation,
includes arrival directions with zenith angles up to 80◦,
and is about three times larger than that used in earlier
studies. We update the test based on correlations with active
galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the Véron-Cetty and Véron catalog,
which does not yield a significant indication of anisotropy
with the present data set. We perform a blind search for
localized excess fluxes and for self-clustering of arrival
directions at angular scales up to 30◦ and for different
energy thresholds between 40 EeV and 80 EeV. We also examine
the correlation of arrival directions with relatively nearby galaxies in the 2MRS catalog, AGNs detected by Swift-BAT,
and a sample of radio galaxies with jets and with the
Centaurus A galaxy. None of the searches shows a statistically
significant evidence of anisotropy. The two largest
departures from isotropy that were found have a post-trial
probability ≈ 1.4%. One is for cosmic rays with energy above
58 EeV that arrive within 15◦ of the direction toward
Centaurus A. The other is for arrival directions within 18◦
of Swift-BAT AGNs closer than 130 Mpc and brighter than
10[sup]44 erg/s, with the same energy threshold. |
