Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays and the Auger Observatory

A. Letessier‐Selvon, The Pierre, Auger Collaboration

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Abstract. In this proceeding we present the construction status and the performances of the Pierre Auger Observatory together with the first results obtained with our initial 18 month of data. In particular, we discuss our search for anisotropy near the Galactic Center, our limit on the photon fraction at the highest energies and our first estimate of the cosmic ray spectrum above 3 EeV. All of the material presented in this proceeding was extracted from the numerous Auger contributions to the 29th ICRC proceedings.
