Abstract content

The clustering properties of the arrival directions of ultra high energy cosmic rays encode important information to determine their origin, composition, and to constrain galactic and extragalactic magnetic fields. We present here the results of a variety of analyses of data from the Pierre Auger Observatory as a function of the angular scale and the energy threshold. We compare our results with the signals found by previous experiments.
