Study of Large scale Cosmic Ray Anisotropy with KASCADE and IceTop — •Joshua Turnwald, Donghwa Kang, and Andreas Haungs for the IceCube collaboration — Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)

We present a study of anisotropies in the arrival directions of cosmic rays using data from KASCADE (KArlsruhe Shower Core and Array DEtector) and IceTop, the surface component of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. These two experiments, located in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres respectively, provide complementary coverage of the cosmic-ray sky. Our analysis focuses on large-scale anisotropies in the energy range from 100 TeV to about 50 PeV. The relative intensity of the anisotropy is determined using a maximum likelihood method. In this contribution, the results of the dipole amplitude and its systematic studies will be discussed.
