We confirm the anisotropy of the arrival directions of these events and find a significant correlation with the updated definition of the supergalactic plane at distances up to 70 Mpc, A Monte Carlo calculation of isotropic source distribution suggests a chance probability for isotropic event arrival direction distribution of 2-6$\\times10^{-4}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-07-18T20:09:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "98.54.Cm", "96.50.sd", "95.85.Ry", "98.62.Ck" ], "keywords": [ "highest energy cosmic rays", "supergalactic plane", "seven ultra high energy cosmic", "ultra high energy cosmic rays" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 3, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 785592, "adsabs": "2008arXiv0805.1746S" } } }
