Description

At present, we don’t understand what can generate ultra high energy cosmic rays(UHECRs) exactly. Active galactic nuclei(AGN) can be regarded as one of the source of UHECRs. In this presentation, we use bayesian approach to detemine the fraction of UHECRs coming from AGNs. And 27 highest energy-events detected by Pierre Auger Observatory(PAO) with Veron Cetty Veron(VCV) catalogue are analysed.
