Milagrito: a TeV air-shower array
The Milagro Collaboration, R. Atkins
Milagrito, a large, covered water-Cherenkov detector, was the world's first air-shower-particle detector sensitive to cosmic gamma rays below 1 TeV. It served as a prototype for th…
First Results of a Study of TeV Emission from GRBs in Milagrito
J. E. McEnery, R. Atkins, W. Benbow +36
Milagrito, a detector sensitive to gamma-rays at TeV energies, monitored the northern sky during the period February 1997 through May 1998. With a large field of view and high duty…
TeV Observations of Markarian 501 with the Milagrito Water Cherenkov Detector
R. Atkins
The Milagrito water Cherenkov detector near Los Alamos, New Mexico, operated as a sky monitor at energies of a few TeV between February 1997 and May 1998 including the period of th…
Neutrino-induced upward stopping muons in Super-Kamiokande
Kamiokande Collaboration
A total of 137 upward stopping muons of minimum energy 1.6 GeV are observed by Super-Kamiokande during 516 detector live days. The measured muon flux is 0.39+/-0.04(stat.)+/-0.02(s…
Instrumented Water Tanks can Improve Air Shower Detector Sensitivity
R. Atkins, W. Benbow, D. Berley +40
Previous works have shown that water Cherenkov detectors have superior sensitivity to those of scintillation counters as applied to detecting extensive air showers (EAS). This is i…
Calibration of the Milagro Cosmic Ray Telescope
R. Atkins, W. Benbow, D. Berley +40
The Milagro detector is an air shower array which uses the water Cherenkov technique and is capable of continuously monitoring the sky at energies near 1 TeV. The detector consists…
