Description
Telescope Array (TA) experiment is the largest hybrid detector to observe ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) in the northern hemisphere. In the TA experiment, we newly designed and constructed 24 fluorescence detectors (FDs) located at two stations. We report the energy spectrum of UHECRs with energies above 1017.5 eV from analyzing data collected by the new FDs during the first 3.7 years in monocular mode. (authors)
