Resumen:
Ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays are the most energetic particles observed, reaching orders ofmagnitude above the LHC energy range. The Pierre Auger Observatory, located in Mendozaprovince, Argentina, is the largest ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray observatory in the world. Sincethe start of operation in 2004, the Observatory has reached unprecedented exposure andthe high-quality data set spans three orders of magnitude in energy, yielding a plethora ofscientic ndings. A selection of recently published results on the large and intermediatescale anisotropies in ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray arrival directions and search for neutrinoscorrelated with GW170817 is being presented in this contribution. Implications for the futureoperation and motivations for the Observatory upgrade are also briey outlined.
