List of Telescope Array events with E > 57EeV
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We have searched for intermediate-scale anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays with energies above 57 EeV in the northern sky using data collected over a 5 yr period by the surface detector of the Telescope Array experiment.
Description
We report on a cluster of events that we call the hotspot, found by oversampling using 20{deg} radius circles. The hotspot has a Li-Ma statistical significance of 5.1{sigma}, and is centered at RA = 146.{deg}7, DE = 43.{deg}2.
The position of the hotspot is about 19{deg} off of the supergalactic plane. The probability of a cluster of events of 5.1{sigma} significance, appearing by chance in an isotropic cosmic-ray sky, is estimated to be 3.7x10^-4^ (3.4{sigma}).
