25. Large-Scale Distribution of Arrival Directions of Cosmic Rays Detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory and the Telescope Array above 10[sup]19 eVOlivier Deligny, Andrej Filipčič, Gašper Kukec Mezek, Ahmed Saleh, Samo Stanič, Marta Trini, Darko Veberič, Serguei Vorobiov, Lili Yang, Danilo Zavrtanik, Marko Zavrtanik, 2015, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: The large-scale distribution of arrival directions of
high-energy cosmic rays is a key observable in attempts to
understanding their origin. The dipole and quadrupole moments
are of special interest in revealing potential anisotropies.
An unambiguous measurement of these moments as well as
of the full set of spherical harmonic coefficients requires
full-sky coverage. This can be achieved by combining data from
observatories located in both the northern and southern
hemispheres. To this end, a joint analysis using data recorded
at the Pierre Auger Observatory and the Telescope Array above
10[sup]19 eV has been performed. Thanks to the full-sky
coverage, the measurement of the dipole moment reported in
this study does not rely on any assumption on the underlying
flux of cosmic rays. As well, the resolution on the quadrupole
and higher order moments is the best ever obtained. The
resulting multipolar expansion of the flux of cosmic rays
allows a series of anisotropy searches to be performed,
and in particular to report on the first angular power
spectrum of cosmic rays. This allows a comprehensive
description of the angular distribution of cosmic rays
above 10[sup]19 eV. Ključne besede: Pierre Auger Observatory, Telescope Array, high-energy cosmic rays, large-scale anisotropies, angular power spectrum Objavljeno v RUNG: 08.03.2016; Ogledov: 4533; Prenosov: 189 Celotno besedilo (462,61 KB) |
26. Indications of anisotropy at large angular scales in the arrival directions of cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger ObservatoryImen Al Samarai, Andrej Filipčič, Gašper Kukec Mezek, Ahmed Saleh, Samo Stanič, Marta Trini, Darko Veberič, Serguei Vorobiov, Lili Yang, Danilo Zavrtanik, Marko Zavrtanik, 2015, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: The large-scale distribution of arrival directions of
high-energy cosmic rays carries major clues to understanding
their origin. The Pierre Auger Collaboration have implemented
different analyses to search for dipolar and quadrupolar
anisotropies in different energy ranges spanning four orders
of magnitude. A common phase ≈270◦ of the first harmonic
modulation in right-ascension was found in adjacent energy intervals below 1 EeV, and another common phase ≈100◦
above 4 EeV. A constancy of phase measurements in ordered
energy intervals originating from a genuine anisotropy is
expected to appear with a smaller number of events than those
needed to achieve significant amplitudes. This led us to
design a prescribed test aimed at establishing whether
this consistency in phases is real at 99% CL. The test required
a total independent exposure of 21,000 km2 sr yr. We report on
the status of this prescription. We also report the results of
the search for a dipole anisotropy for cosmic rays with
energies above 4 EeV using events with zenith angles between
60◦ and 80◦. Compared to previous analyses of events with
zenith angles smaller than 60◦, this extension increases
the size of the data set by 30%, and enlarges the fraction of
exposed sky from 71% to 85%. The largest departure from
isotropy is found in the energy range above 8 EeV, with an
amplitude for the first harmonic in right ascension
r1 = (4.4 ± 1.0) × 10[sup]−2, that has a chance probability
P(≥ r1) = 6.4×10[sup]−5, reinforcing the hint previously
reported with vertical events alone. Ključne besede: high-energy cosmic rays
