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…

Horizontal muon track identification with neural networks in HAWC

J. R. Angeles Camacho, H. León Vargas

Nowadays the implementation of artificial neural networks in high-energy physics has obtained excellent results on improving signal detection. In this work we propose to use neural…

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…

Probing the Sea of Cosmic Rays by Measuring Gamma-Ray Emission from Passive Giant Molecular Clouds with HAWC

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +87

The study of high-energy gamma rays from passive Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in our Galaxy is an indirect way to characterize and probe the paradigm of the "sea" of cosmic rays i…

Evidence of 200 TeV photons from HAWC J1825-134

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +81

The Earth is bombarded by ultra-relativistic particles, known as cosmic rays (CRs). CRs with energies up to a few PeV (=10 eV), the knee in the particle spectrum, are believ…

3HWC: The Third HAWC Catalog of Very-High-Energy Gamma-ray Sources

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +104

We present a new catalog of TeV gamma-ray sources using 1523 days of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The catalog represents the most sensitive surve…
