Abstract content

The arrival directions of ultrahigh energy extensive air showers by the Yakutsk and AGASA array data have been considered. It is shown that 3 very high ultrahigh energy showers with E>10^20 eV registered at the Yakutsk array correlate with the nearest pulsars. The problem of cosmic ray origin is discussed.
