Search for localized excess fluxes in Auger sky maps and prescription results
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
Abstract
Using the first surface detector data of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we present the results of a blind search for overdensities in the cosmic ray flux with respect to isotropic expectations. We consider two energy bands: 1<E<5 EeV and E>5 EeV at two angular scales: 5 and 15. We also report the results of searches for excesses in target directions already defined in a set of prescriptions presented at the ICRC in 2003. Both analyses give results that are compatible with isotropy.
