Astroparticles offer a new path for research in the field of particle physics, allowing investigations at energies above those accesible with accelerators. Ultra-high energy cosmic rays can be studied via the observation of the showers they generate in the atmosphere. The Pierre Auger Observatory is a hybrid detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays, combining two complementary measurement techniques used by previous experiments, to get the best possible measurements of these air showers. Shower observations enable one to not only estimate the energy, direction and most probable mass of the primary cosmic particles but also to obtain some information about the properties of their hadronic interactions. Results that are most relevant in the context of determining hadronic interaction characteristics at ultra-high energies will be presented.

The Pierre Auger Southern Observatory, a hybrid detector for the study of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs), is now operating for more than three years and approaching completion. This paper describes the present status and the performance of the Observatory, with an emphasis on the advantages provided by the combined use of two different detection techniques. A panorama of the most recent results related to the spectrum, composition and arrival directions of the UHECR is then presented, along with a brief discussion of their impact on our knowledge of the UHECRs' origin and composition.

Arrival Directions

The Pierre Auger Observatory is the world's largest experiment for the measurement of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). These UHECRs are assumed to be to be charged particles, and thus are deflected in cosmic magnetic fields. Recent results of the Pierre Auger Observatory addressing the complex of energy ordering of the UHECRs arrival directions are reviewed in this contribution. So far no significant energy ordering has been observed.
