Examination of Xmax anisotropy for the next generation Ultra-high energy cosmic rays observations [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 The estimation of mass composition ultra-high energy cosmic rays is essential to understand their origin and generation mechanism. Recent experiments are expected to discover anisotropy of mass composition in ultra-high energy cosmic rays.

Search for the large-scale cosmic-ray anisotropies using the TA and TALE surface detector arrays [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 Origins of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are still largely unknown. In particular, the “2nd knee” around 1017 eV could be related to a transition of origins from the galactic to extra-galactic sources.

Towards extracting cosmic magnetic field structures from cosmic-ray arrival directions
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021 We present a novel method to search for structures of coherently aligned patterns in ultra-high energy cosmic-ray arrival directions simultaneously across the entire sky.

Search for ultra high energy cosmic ray sources
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Earlier we suggested a new method to search for sources and anisotropy of the arrival directions of ultra high energy particles. Here using this method we analyzed the data of the Yakutsk EAS array and found that particle fluxes with energies E < 4.1019 ...

Constraints on the Hosts of UHECR Accelerators
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Interactions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) in the surroundings of their accelerators can naturally explain the observed spectrum and composition of UHECRs, including the abundance of protons below the ankle.

Effects of the Galactic Magnetic Field on the UHECR Correlation Studies with Starburst Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We estimate the biases caused by the coherent deflection of cosmic rays due to the Galactic magnetic field (GMF) in maximum likelihood analyses for searches of ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray sources in the literature. We simulate mock event data sets with a
