The Ultra High Energy Cosmic Ray Spectrum as Measured in Monocular Mode

ORAL

Abstract

One of the three fluorescence stations in the Telescope Array (TA) Experiment was constructed using refurbished telescopes from the High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) Experiment. Specifically, the TA Middle Drum (MD) site is instrumented with detectors previously used at the HiRes-1 site. The inclusion of the MD site makes possible a direct comparison between the fluorescence energy scales and spectra between TA and HiRes. We will present the analysis and spectrum from this data.
