Southern Hemisphere Observation of a $10^{18}$eV Cosmic Ray Near the Direction of the Galactic Centre
Abstract
We report on an analysis of data from the southern hemisphere SUGAR cosmic ray detector. We confirm the existence of an excess of $10^{18}$eV cosmic rays from a direction close to the Galactic Centre, first reported by the AGASA group. We find that the signal is consistent with that from a point source, and we find evidence for an excess of cosmic rays coming from the direction of the Galactic Centre itself.Keywords
