Description
The Telescope Array (TA) experiment is the largest observatory for ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) in the northern hemisphere. The TA experiment, along with its low-energy extension (TALE), employs plastic scintillator detectors and fluorescence detectors to observe cosmic-ray-induced air showers ranging from 2 PeV and 100 EeV. In this presentation, we provide an overview of the current status and recent results obtained from the TA experiment, focusing on cosmic-ray anisotropy, energy spectrum and mass composition analyses. We also discuss the future prospects of the TA experiment.
