摘要

The IceCube neutrino detector at the South Pole is sensitive to atmospheric muons produced by primary cosmicrays in the TeV energy range. The high rate of events (about 2 kHz in the full 86-string detector) allows for searches ofanisotropy in the arrival direction distribution of cosmic rays at the level of a few parts per mille. Using the muon datarecorded with IceCube between 2007 and 2010, we show that the cosmic ray flux in the southern hemisphere is notisotropic, but exhibits significant structure on multiple angular scales. In addition to large-scale features in the form ofstrong dipole and quadrupole moments, the data include several localized regions of excess and deficit on scales between10and 30. These features are statistically significant. The origin of the features is currently unknown.
