Description

In this talk some recent results from the Pierre Auger Collaboration
will be presented. These include the measurement of the energy
spectrum of cosmic rays over a wide range of energies, studies of the
cosmic-ray mass composition with the fluorescence and surface detector
of the Observatory, studies on the anisotropies in the arrival
direction of cosmic rays at different scales and the searches for
photons and neutrinos. The astrophysical implications of the spectrum
and composition results are also discussed. Finally the progress of
the upgrade of the Observatory, AugerPrime is presented.
