Anisotropy analysis of EAS data in the knee region

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Based on MAKET-ANI EAS data the distributions of equatorial coordinates of EAS core directions are obtained in the knee region. Anisotropy of primary cosmic rays is displayed only by declination equatorial coordinates (20+/-3 degrees) at primary energies more than 5-10 PeV. The fraction of anisotropic component turns out ~10% in the knee region.
