Description

Results on 2-dimensional TeV cosmic ray anisotropy and γ-ray point source search using data taken from Tibet-HD (Feb.1997-Sep.1999) and Tibet-III (Nov.1999-Oct.2001) arrays are presented. From 0 deg. to 60 deg. in declination, large scale anisotropy of cosmic-ray intensity at a magnitude of about 0.1% is observed. In the mean while, the well-known steady source Crab Nebula and the high state of the flare type source Mrk421 are detected
