Anisotropy and Corotation of Galactic Cosmic Rays

gamma Collaboration, M. Amenomori

The intensity of Galactic cosmic rays is nearly isotropic because of the influence of magnetic fields in the Milky Way. Here, we present two-dimensional high-precision anisotropy m…

Are protons still dominant at the knee of the cosmic-ray energy spectrum?

The Tibet AS Gamma Collaboration, M. Amenomori

A hybrid experiment consisting of emulsion chambers, burst detectors and the Tibet II air-shower array was carried out at Yangbajing (4,300 m a.s.l., 606 g/cm) in Tibet to obta…

Multi-TeV Gamma-Ray Flares from Markarian 421 in 2000 and 2001 Observed with the Tibet Air Shower Array

M. Amenomori

Several strong TeV gamma-ray flares were detected from Markarian 421 in the years 2000 and 2001 by the Tibet III air shower array at a level of statistical significance of 5.1 sigm…
