On Anisotropy of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic-Rays
arXiv:0901.2256 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2009.05.125
Abstract
We briefly summarize our study on anisotropy of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic-Rays (UHECRs), in which we define a statistics that measures the correlation between UHECRs and Large Scale Structure (LSS). We also comment here on recently published paper by Koers and Tinyakov that compared our statistics to improved KS statistics.
