Abstract

The amplitude and phase of the cosmic ray anisotropy are well established experimentally between 10¹¹ eV and 10¹⁴ eV. The study of the evolution of the anisotropy over primary energy in the range 10¹⁴ - 10¹⁵ eV can provide a significant tool for the understanding of the knee in the primary spectrum. In this paper we extend the EAS-TOP result, obtained at E₀ ≈ 10¹⁴ eV, to higher energies by using the full data set (8 years of data taking), and exploiting an analysis method, the "East-West" one, which is independent from detector and atmosphere effects. Results derived at 4 10¹⁴ eV from the harmonic analysis of the data in solar, sidereal and anti-sidereal time are presented and discussed.
