Search for small clusters by auto‐correlation analysis from Telescope Array Available to Purchase

The Telescope Array (TA) experiment detects air showers induced by extremely high energy cosmic rays in the middle west of Utah, USA. The TA experiment consists of two different types of detector such as atmospheric fluorescence detectors (FDs) and surface array particle detectors (SDs). The SD observation started in March 2008. This paper describes the search for the small scale clusters from 850‐days TA SD data by auto‐correlation method for several energy thresholds. As a result, there is no indication of small scale clusters by TA SD.
