The propagation trajectories of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are inevitably affected by Galactic magnetic field (GMF). Because of the inevitability, the importance of the studies of the propagation in GMF have increased to interpret the results of recent UHECR experiments. This article reviews the effects of GMF to the propagation and arrival directions of UHECRs and introduces recent studies to constrain UHECR sources.
Comments: 6 pages, 3 figures. An invited review article to appear in the Proceedings of the International Workshop on the Recent Progress of Ultra-high Energy Cosmic Ray Observation (UHECR2010), Nagoya, Japan, 2010
