The Pierre Auger Collaboration discovered, in a solid angle of radius about 18degree, a local group of cosmic rays having energies in the region E0 geq 5.5times1019 eV and coming from the region of the Gen A radio galaxy, whose galactic coordinates are lG = 309.5degree and bG = 19.4degree. Near it, there is the Centaur supercluster of galaxies, its galactic coordinates being lG = 302.4degree and bG = 21.6degree. It is noteworthy that the Great Attractor, which may have a direct bearing on the observed picture, is also there.

We report a measurement of the energy spectrum of cosmic rays above $2.5{times} 10^{18}$ eV based on $215,030$ events. New results are presented: at about $1.3{times} 10^{19}$ eV, the spectral index changes from $2.51 pm 0.03 textrm{ (stat.)} pm 0.05
textrm{ (sys.)}$ to $3.05 pm 0.05 textrm{ (stat.)}pm 0.10textrm{ (sys.)}$, evolving to $5.1pm0.3textrm{ (stat.)} pm 0.1textrm{ (sys.)}$ beyond $5{times} 10^{19}$ eV, while no significant dependence of spectral features on the declination is seen in the accessible range. These features of the spectrum can be reproduced in models with energy-dependent mass composition. The energy density in cosmic rays above $5{times} 10^{18}$ eV is $(5.66 pm 0.03 textrm{ (stat.)} pm 1.40 textrm{ (sys.)} ) {times} 10^{53}~$erg Mpc$^{-3}$.
A measurement of the cosmic-ray spectrum for energies exceeding $4{times}10^{18}$ eV is presented, which is based on the analysis of showers with zenith angles greater than $60^{circ}$ detected with the Pierre Auger Observatory between 1 January 2004
and 31 December 2013. The measured spectrum confirms a flux suppression at the highest energies. Above $5.3{times}10^{18}$ eV, the ankle, the flux can be described by a power law $E^{-gamma}$ with index $gamma=2.70 pm 0.02 ,text{(stat)} pm 0.1,text{(sys)}$ followed by a smooth suppression region. For the energy ($E_text{s}$) at which the spectral flux has fallen to one-half of its extrapolated value in the absence of suppression, we find $E_text{s}=(5.12pm0.25,text{(stat)}^{+1.0}_{-1.2},text{(sys)}){times}10^{19}$ eV.
Results are presented that were obtained by analysing the arrival directions of E0 > 8x10**18 eV primary cosmic rays recorded at the Yakutsk array over the period between 1974 and 2003 and at the SUGAR array (Australia). The greatest primary cosmic r
ay flux is shown to arrive from the region of visible intersection of the planes of the Galaxy and the Supergalaxy (local supercluster of galaxies) at a galactic longitude of about 137 degres. On a global scale, the lowest temperature of the cosmic microwave background is typical of this region.
We report a measurement of the energy spectrum of cosmic rays for energies above $2.5 {times} 10^{18}~$eV based on 215,030 events recorded with zenith angles below $60^circ$. A key feature of the work is that the estimates of the energies are indepen
dent of assumptions about the unknown hadronic physics or of the primary mass composition. The measurement is the most precise made hitherto with the accumulated exposure being so large that the measurements of the flux are dominated by systematic uncertainties except at energies above $5 {times} 10^{19}~$eV. The principal conclusions are: (1) The flattening of the spectrum near $5 {times} 10^{18}~$eV, the so-called ankle, is confirmed. (2) The steepening of the spectrum at around $5 {times} 10^{19}~$eV is confirmed. (3) A new feature has been identified in the spectrum: in the region above the ankle the spectral index $gamma$ of the particle flux ($propto E^{-gamma}$) changes from $2.51 pm 0.03~{rm (stat.)} pm 0.05~{rm (sys.)}$ to $3.05 pm 0.05~{rm (stat.)} pm 0.10~{rm (sys.)}$ before changing sharply to $5.1 pm 0.3~{rm (stat.)} pm 0.1~{rm (sys.)}$ above $5 {times} 10^{19}~$eV. (4) No evidence for any dependence of the spectrum on declination has been found other than a mild excess from the Southern Hemisphere that is consistent with the anisotropy observed above $8 {times} 10^{18}~$eV.
We report a multi-resolution search for anisotropies in the arrival directions of cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory with local zenith angles up to $80^circ$ and energies in excess of 4 EeV ($4 times 10^{18}$ eV). This search is con
ducted by measuring the angular power spectrum and performing a needlet wavelet analysis in two independent energy ranges. Both analyses are complementary since the angular power spectrum achieves a better performance in identifying large-scale patterns while the needlet wavelet analysis, considering the parameters used in this work, presents a higher efficiency in detecting smaller-scale anisotropies, potentially providing directional information on any observed anisotropies. No deviation from isotropy is observed on any angular scale in the energy range between 4 and 8 EeV. Above 8 EeV, an indication for a dipole moment is captured; while no other deviation from isotropy is observed for moments beyond the dipole one. The corresponding $p$-values obtained after accounting for searches blindly performed at several angular scales, are $1.3 times 10^{-5}$ in the case of the angular power spectrum, and $2.5 times 10^{-3}$ in the case of the needlet analysis. While these results are consistent with previous reports making use of the same data set, they provide extensions of the previous works through the thorough scans of the angular scales.
