| 内容記述 | Using data from more than ten-years of observations with the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array (AGASA), we published a result that the energy spectrum of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays extends beyond the cutoff energy predicted by Greisen, and Zatsepin and Kuzmin. In this paper, we reevaluate the energy determination method used for AGASA events with respect to the lateral distribution of shower particles, their attenuation with zenith angle, shower front structure, delayed particles observed far from the core and other factors. The currently assigned energies of AGASA events have an accuracy of ‘25% in event-reconstruction resolution and ‘18% in systematic errors around 1020eV. This systematic uncertainty is independent of primary energy above 1019eV. Based on the energy spectrum from 1014.5eV to a few times 1020eV determined at Akeno, there are surely events above 1020eV and the energy spectrum extends up to a few times 1020eV without a GZK-cutoff. |
