Abstract

We studied the propagation of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays in extragalactic magnetic fields (EGMFs). We report on the effect of the EGMF on the large-scale anisotropy signal measured at Earth. We show how a spurious dipolar and quadrupolar signal can be generated by the EGMF even if the source distribution is isotropic. (AU)
