Abstract

The results obtained by analyzing arrival directions for primary cosmic particles characterized by energies in the region E 0 ⩾ 1017 eV and zenith angles in the range θ ⩽ 60° and detected at the Yakutsk array for studying extensive air showers (EASs) over the period spanning 1974 and 2009 are presented. It is shown that these events exhibit different anisotropies in different energy intervals.
