Study of the Very High Energy emission of M87 through its broadband spectral energy distribution

HAWC Collaboration, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +63

The radio galaxy M87 is the central dominant galaxy of the Virgo Cluster. Very High Energy (VHE, TeV) emission, from M87 has been detected by Imaging Air Cherenkov Tel…

HAWC Study of the Ultra-High-Energy Spectrum of MGRO J1908+06

HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +97

We report TeV gamma-ray observations of the ultra-high-energy source MGRO J1908+06 using data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory. This source is one of the h…

Luminosity functions of globular clusters in five nearby spiral galaxies using HST/ACS images

Luis Lomelí-Núñez, Y. D. Mayya, L. H. Rodríguez-Merino +2

We here present the luminosity function (LF) of globular clusters (GCs) in five nearby spiral galaxies using the samples of GC candidates selected in Hubble Space Telescope mosaic…

Modeling the non-flaring VHE emission from M87 as detected by the HAWC gamma ray observatory

Fernando Ureña-Mena, Alberto Carramiñana, Anna Lia Longinotti +1

M87 is a giant radio galaxy located in the Virgo Cluster, known to be a very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray source. As radio galaxies are considered the misaligned low-redshift counte…

Characterization of the background for a neutrino search with the HAWC observatory

HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +59

The close location of the HAWC observatory to the largest volcano in Mexico allows to perform a search for neutrino-induced horizontal muon and tau charged leptons. The section of…

TeV emission of Galactic plane sources with HAWC and H.E.S.S

H. Abdalla, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +318

The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory and the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) are two leading instruments in the ground-based very-high-energy gamma-ray d…

Evidence that Ultra-High-Energy Gamma Rays are a Universal Feature Near Powerful Pulsars

HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +97

The highest-energy known gamma-ray sources are all located within 0.5 degrees of extremely powerful pulsars. This raises the question of whether ultra-high-energy (UHE; 56 TeV)…
