contents This paper deals with the fundamental period $\tildeπ$ of the Carlitz module. The main theorem states that the Carlitz period and all its hyperderivatives are algebraically independent over the base field $\mathbb{F}_q(θ)$. Our approach also reveals a connection of these hyperderivatives with the coordinates of a period lattice generator of the tensor powers of the Carlitz module which was already observed by M. Papanikolas in a yet unpublished paper. Namely, these coordinates can be obtained by explicit polynomial expressions in $\tildeπ$ and its hyperderivatives. Papanikolas also gave various presentations of these expressions which we also prove here.
