The TeV Sun Rises: Discovery of Gamma rays from the Quiescent Sun with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +89
We report the first detection of a TeV gamma-ray flux from the solar disk (6.3), based on 6.1 years of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The 0.5--…
Study of the IC 443 region with the HAWC observatory
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, M. Araya +89
Supernova remnants are one potential source class considered a PeVatron (i.e. capable of accelerating cosmic rays above PeV energies). The shock fronts produced after the explosion…
HAWC Search for High-Mass Microquasars
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +87
Microquasars with high-mass companion stars are promising very-high-energy (VHE; 0.1-100 TeV) gamma-ray emitters, but their behaviors above 10 TeV are poorly known. Using the High…
Galactic Gamma-Ray Diffuse Emission at TeV energies with HAWC Data
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velazquez +77
The Galactic gamma-ray diffuse emission (GDE) is emitted by cosmic rays (CRs), ultra-relativistic protons and electrons, interacting with gas and electromagnetic radiation fields i…
The Fourth HAWC Catalog of Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Sources
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, E. Anita-Rangel +87
We present an updated catalog of TeV gamma-ray sources based on the fifth pass of data from the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory. This release benefits from improve…
VERITAS and Fermi-LAT observations of new HAWC sources
VERITAS Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Archer +280
The HAWC (High Altitude Water Cherenkov) collaboration recently published their 2HWC catalog, listing 39 very high energy (VHE; >100~GeV) gamma-ray sources based on 507 days of obs…
