The TeV Sun Rises: Discovery of Gamma rays from the Quiescent Sun with HAWC

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +89

We report the first detection of a TeV gamma-ray flux from the solar disk (6.3), based on 6.1 years of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The 0.5--2…

High Altitude characterization of the Hunga Pressure Wave with Cosmic Rays by the HAWC Observatory

R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +64

High-energy cosmic rays that hit the Earth can be used to study large-scale atmospheric perturbations. After a first interaction in the upper parts of the atmosphere, cosmic rays p…

Limits on the Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background above 10 TeV with HAWC

HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +87

The high-energy Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background (DGRB) is expected to be produced by unresolved isotropically distributed astrophysical objects, potentially including dark matter anni…

Search for Gamma-Ray and Neutrino Coincidences Using HAWC and ANTARES Data

H. A. Ayala Solares, S. Coutu, D. Cowen +228

In the quest for high-energy neutrino sources, the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON) has implemented a new search by combining data from the High Altitude Wat…

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…

Gamma/Hadron Separation with the HAWC Observatory

R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. D. Álvarez +90

The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory observes atmospheric showers produced by incident gamma rays and cosmic rays with energy from 300 GeV to more than 10…

Probing the extragalactic mid-infrared background with HAWC

Mateo Fernandez Alonso

The extragalactic background light (EBL) contains all the radiation emitted by nuclear and accretion processes in stars and compact objects since the epoch of recombination. Measur…

Validation of standardized data formats and tools for ground-level particle-based gamma-ray observatories

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +74

Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy is still a rather young field of research, with strong historical connections to particle physics. This is why most observations are conducted by e…

-ray Emission from Classical Nova V392 Per: Measurements from Fermi and HAWC

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +84

This paper reports on the -ray properties of the 2018 Galactic nova V392 Per, spanning photon energies 0.1 GeV to 100 TeV by combining observations from the Fermi Gamma-ra…
