G.AbstractWe show that “top-down” mechanisms of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays which involve heavy relic particle-like objects predict a Galactic anisotropy of the highest-energy cosmic rays at the level of minimum ∼20%. This anisotropy is large enough to be either observed or ruled out in the next generation of experiments. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.SubjectsGALACTIC cosmic rays; ANISOTROPYPublicationJETP Letters, 1998, Vol 68, Issue 2, p107ISSN0021-3640Publication typeArticleDOI10.1134/1.567830
