A method to search for correlations of UHECR masses with the large scale structures in the local galaxy density field

One of the main goals of investigations using present and future giant extensive air shower (EAS) arrays is the mass composition of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). A new approach to the problem is presented, combining analysis of arrival directions with the statistical test of the pairs of E...
