Description

Recent progress on the field of ultra high-energy cosmic rays (UHECR) has been driven by the data colected by the Pierre Auger Observatory in the southern hemisphere and by Telescope Array (TA) in the northern hemisphere. These hybrid observatories combine large ground arrays with fluorescence detection techniques. In this presentation, selected results from Auger and TA will be reviewed. Challenges and prospects for the future will then be addressed.
