All-Sky Anisotropy of Cosmic Rays at 10 TeV

ORAL

Abstract

We discuss results of the joint analysis of the arrival direction distribution of Galactic cosmic rays by the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov and IceCube Neutrino observatories at the same median primary particle energy of 10 TeV. The combined sky map and angular power spectrum largely eliminate biases that result from partial sky coverage and holds a key to probe into the propagation properties of TeV cosmic rays through our local interstellar medium and the interaction between the interstellar and heliospheric magnetic fields. We also infer the direction of the interstellar magnetic field from the boundary between large scale excess and deficit regions from which we estimate the missing corresponding vertical dipole component of the large scale anisotropy.
