From a Network to a Networking: The Evolution of the Latin American Giant Observatory
C. Sarmiento-Cano, H. Asorey, M. Audelo +11
The Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) is a collaborative initiative that deploys a network of low-cost, autonomous Water Cherenkov Detectors across Latin America and Spain. I…
On the correlation between X-rays and TeV gamma-rays in HBL Blazars
Mabel Osorio-Archila, María Magdalena González, J. Rodrigo Sacahui
The gamma-ray emission in blazars can be attributed to the leptonic Synchrotron Self-Compton (SSC) model, photo-hadronic interactions, or a combination thereof. While evidence supp…
Constraints on the very high energy gamma-ray emission from short GRBs with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +87
Many gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been observed from radio wavelengths, and a few at very-high energies (VHEs, > 100GeV). The HAWC gamma-ray observatory is well suited to study tra…
Study of Blazar activity in 10 year Fermi-LAT data and implications for TeV neutrino expectations
J. R. Sacahui, A. V. Penacchioni, A. Marinelli +4
Blazars are the most active extragalactic gamma-ray sources. They show sporadic bursts of activity, lasting from hours to months. In this work we present a 10-year analysis of a sa…
Contributions of the LAGO Collaboration to the 36th ICRC
A. Alberto, W. Alvarez, L. Ancari +90
The LAGO (Latin American Giant Observatory) observatory is an experiment that spans over Latin America in a wide range of latitudes that gives different rigidity cut offs for the e…
CGRO/BATSE Data Support the New Paradigm for GRB Prompt Emission and the New L-E relation
S. Guiriec, M. M. Gonzalez, J. R. Sacahui +3
The paradigm for GRB prompt emission is changing. Since early in the CGRO era, the empirical Band function has been considered a good description of the keV-MeV spectra although it…
The protoMIRAX Hard X-ray Imaging Balloon Experiment
João Braga, Flavio D'Amico, Manuel A. C. Avila +6
The protoMIRAX hard X-ray imaging telescope is a balloon-borne experiment developed as a pathfinder for the MIRAX satellite mission. The experiment consists essentially in a coded-…
Towards a Better Understanding of the GRB Phenomenon: a New Model for GRB Prompt Emission and its effects on the New Non-Thermal L-E relation
S. Guiriec, C. Kouveliotou, F. Daigne +14
We reanalyze the prompt emission of two of the brightest Fermi GRBs (080916C and 090926A) with a new model composed of 3 components: (i) a thermal-like component--approximated with…
VAMOS: a Pathfinder for the HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +133
VAMOS was a prototype detector built in 2011 at an altitude of 4100m a.s.l. in the state of Puebla, Mexico. The aim of VAMOS was to finalize the design, construction techniques and…
GRB980923. A burst with a short duration high energy component
M. M. Gonzalez, J. R. Sacahui, J. L. Ramirez +2
The prompt emission of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) is usually well described by the Band function: two power-laws joined smoothly at a given break energy. In addition to the Band compo…
The long and the short of the high energy emission in GRB090926A: an external shock
J. R. Sacahui, N. Fraija, M. M. González +1
SSC emission from a reverse shock has been suggested as the origin for the high energy component lasting 2 s in the prompt phase of GRB98080923 (Fraija et al. 2012). The model desc…
On the sensitivity of the HAWC observatory to gamma-ray bursts
HAWC collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, J. A. Aguilar +145
We present the sensitivity of HAWC to Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). HAWC is a very high-energy gamma-ray observatory currently under construction in Mexico at an altitude of 4100 m. It…
