DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Maria Gurtner (University of Wuppertal)\n\nThe AMAND
 A detector has been operated at the South Pole until 2006 and recorded a t
 otal ~9·10^9 muons above ~1 TeV between 2000 and 2006.  With a data set o
 f this size\, it is possible to probe the southern sky for per-mil anisotr
 opy on all angular scales in the arrival direction distribution of cosmic 
 rays thereby extending anisotropy measurements performed with IceCube. \nT
 he data presented here were collected with the AMANDA MuonDAQ. Great care 
 has been taken to apply proper data selection cuts and to account for temp
 oral instabilities during data taking. We shall describe the analysis incl
 uding corrections for spatial asymmetries of the detector and for down tim
 es of data taking. For each single year we find asymmetries in the distrib
 ution of right ascension with amplitudes of about 5x10-4 and phases around
  50 degree\, well in agreement with earlier results from IceCube. No signi
 ficant long term variation is found in the data.\n\nhttps://events.icecube
