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…
Joint searches by FACT, H.E.S.S., MAGIC and VERITAS for VHE gamma-ray emission associated with neutrinos detected by IceCube
Fabian Schüssler, Halim Ashkar, Elisa Bernardini +11
The sources of the astrophysical flux of high-energy neutrinos detected by IceCube are still largely unknown, but searches for temporal and spatial correlation between neutrinos an…
An optimized search for dark matter in the galactic halo with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +63
The Galactic Halo is a key target for indirect dark matter detection. The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is a high-energy (~300 GeV to >100 TeV) gamma-ray detecto…
Particle Acceleration in the Cygnus Superbubble
B. Hona
The Cygnus Cocoon is the first gamma-ray superbubble powered by a massive stellar association, the OB2 association. It was postulated that the combined effects of the stellar winds…
The all-particle cosmic ray energy spectrum measured with HAWC
J. A. Morales-Soto, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez
Thanks to recent technological development, a new generation of cosmic ray experiments have been developed with more sensitivity to study these particles in the primary energy inte…
The young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1 in rays as seen with H.E.S.S
Lars Mohrmann, Andreas Specovius, Romed Rauth +2
Massive stellar clusters have recently been hypothesised as candidates for the acceleration of hadronic cosmic rays up to PeV energies. Previously, the H.E.S.S. Collaboration has r…
Detection of new Extreme BL Lac objects with H.E.S.S. and Swift XRT
Mathieu de Bony de Lavergne, Tomas Bylund, Manuel Meyer +2
Extreme high synchrotron peaked blazars (EHBLs) are amongst the most powerful accelerators found in nature. Usually the synchrotron peak frequency of an EHBL is above Hz…
Monitoring the radio galaxy M87 with HAWC
T. Capistrán, D. Avila Rojas, M. M. González +2
Studies of radio galaxies at TeV energies are fascinating because their jets are misaligned concerning our sightline. Thus, it provides us with a unique opportunity to study the st…
Use of Machine Learning for gamma/hadron separation with HAWC
T. Capistrán, K. L. Fan, J. T. Linnemann +3
Background showers triggered by hadrons represent over 99.9% of all particles arriving at ground-based gamma-ray observatories. An important stage in the data analysis of these obs…
HAWC observations of the acceleration of very-high-energy cosmic rays in the Cygnus Cocoon
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +98
Cosmic rays with energies up to a few PeV are known to be accelerated within the Milky Way. Traditionally, it has been presumed that supernova remnants were the main source of very…
Very high energy particle acceleration powered by the jets of the microquasar SS 433
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert +104
SS 433 is a binary system containing a supergiant star that is overflowing its Roche lobe with matter accreting onto a compact object (either a black hole or neutron star). Two jet…
HAWC Contributions to the 35th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC2017)
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +123
List of proceedings from the HAWC Collaboration presented at the 35th International Cosmic Ray Conference, 12 July - 20 July 2017, Bexco, Busan, Korea.
EDGE: a code to calculate diffusion of cosmic-ray electrons and their gamma-ray emission
R. Lopez-Coto, J. Hahn, J. Hinton +5
The positron excess measured by PAMELA and AMS can only be explained if there is one or several sources injecting them. Moreover, at the highest energies, it requires the presence…
Gamma-ray blazar spectra with H.E.S.S. II mono analysis: the case of PKS 2155-304 and PG 1553+113
D. Zaborov, A. M. Taylor, D. A. Sanchez +2
The addition of a 28 m Cherenkov telescope (CT5) to the H.E.S.S. array extended the experiment's sensitivity to lower energies, providing new opportunities for studies of Active Ga…
Gamma-ray blazar spectra with H.E.S.S. II mono analysis: the case of PKS 2155-304 and PG 1553+113
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +332
The addition of a 28 m Cherenkov telescope (CT5) to the H.E.S.S. array extended the experiment's sensitivity to lower energies. The lowest energy threshold is obtained using monosc…
