Description
I will review the recent results of the Pierre Auger Observatory on the arrival
directions of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays .
I will present the latest salient results of the Pierre Auger Observatory, namely the
current level of correlation between arrival directions of ultrahigh-energy air showers
and the direction of nearby active galactic nuclei, the diffuse excess of events in the
region of the radiogalaxy Centaurus A, as well as the intrinsic anisotropy seen in the
ultrahigh-energy sky.
At lower energy, I will mainly focus on the search for galactic neutron point sources.
Finally I will attempt to discuss these previous studies in the context of the cosmic-
ray spectrum and composition estimated with the Pierre Auger Observatory data.
