Large Scale Structure and Cosmic Rays revisited

Abstract

We investigate the possibility that ultra high energy cosmic rays (E > 10^19 eV) are related to the distribution of matter on large scales. The large scale structure (LSS) data stems from the recent IRAS PSCz redshift survey. We present preliminary predictions drawn from an anisotropic distribution of sources which follows the galaxy distribution.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, uses World Scientific style.
