Description

We will summarize the search for anisotropy of the ultra-high-energy cosmic rays with the Telescope Array (TA), making use of the surface detector data that have been collected during full 8 years of the TA operation. We will present the global event distribution, the auto-correlation function, the correlation with the matter distribution in the local Universe, a blind search for localized excesses of events anywhere on the sky (the "hot spot"), as well as a search for a possible directional dependence of the energy spectrum.
