The AUGER experiment - status and results
Giorgio Matthiae
TL;DR
The Auger experiment studies high-energy cosmic rays, providing key results on their composition, energy spectrum, and directional correlations, notably linking them to nearby extragalactic sources.
Contribution
This paper reports the latest findings from the Southern Auger Observatory, including new insights into cosmic ray composition, spectrum, and anisotropy, with a focus on correlations with extragalactic objects.
Findings
Observation of correlations with nearby extragalactic objects
Measurements of cosmic ray energy spectrum
Analysis of mass composition and anisotropy
Abstract
The Auger experiment was designed to study the high-energy cosmic rays by measuring the properties of the showers produced in the atmosphere. The Southern Auger Observatory has taken data since January 2004. Results on mass composition, energy spectrum and anisotropy of the arrival directions are presented. The most important result is the recent observation of correlations with nearby extragalactic objects.
