- Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>A promising energy range to look for angular correlations between cosmic rays of extragalactic origin and their sources is at the highest energies, above a few tens of EeV (1 EeV ≡ 10<jats:sup>18</jats:sup> eV). Despite the flux of these particles being extremely low, the area of ∼3000 km<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> covered at the Pierre Auger Observatory, and the 17 yr data-taking period of the <jats:italic>Phase</jats:italic> <jats:italic>1</jats:italic> of its operations, have enabled us to measure the arrival directions of more than 2600 ultra-high-energy cosmic rays above 32 EeV. We publish this data set, the largest available at such energies from an integrated exposure of 122,000 km<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> sr yr, and search it for anisotropies over the 3.4<jats:italic>π</jats:italic> steradians covered with the Observatory. Evidence for a deviation in excess of isotropy at intermediate angular scales, with ∼15° Gaussian spread or ∼25° top-hat radius, is obtained at the 4<jats:italic>σ</jats:italic> significance level for cosmic-ray energies above ∼40 EeV.</jats:p>
