Abstract
We report on results of a Bayesian analysis of the correlations between the arrival directions of ultra high energy cosmic rays detected by the Telescope Array with the locations of galaxies from four catalogs: 2MRS, Swift-BAT 70 mo, Veron Catalog of Quasars \& AGN, 13th Edition. We discuss the effect of the deflections due to galactic magnetic fields for a number of galactic magnetic field models for various scenarios of composition.
