Study of the IC 443 region with the HAWC observatory
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, M. Araya +89
Supernova remnants are one potential source class considered a PeVatron (i.e. capable of accelerating cosmic rays above PeV energies). The shock fronts produced after the explosion…
Observation of the Galactic Center PeVatron Beyond 100 TeV with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +99
We report an observation of ultra-high energy (UHE) gamma rays from the Galactic Center region, using seven years of data collected by the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Obse…
Performance of the HAWC Observatory and TeV Gamma-Ray Measurements of the Crab Nebula with Improved Extensive Air Shower Reconstruction Algorithms
A . Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +90
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Gamma-Ray Observatory located on the side of the Sierra Negra volcano in Mexico, has been fully operational since 2015. The HAWC collaborat…
Comparing HAWC blazars light curves with different data reconstruction versions
J. A. García-González, M. M. González
We present a comparison of the flux normalization of HAWC sources using 17 months of data that was processed using two different versions of the official data reconstruction used f…
The HAWC ultra-high-energy gamma-ray map with more than 5 years of data
Kelly Malone, José Andrés García González, Patrick Harding
In 2020, the HAWC Collaboration presented the first catalog of gamma-ray sources emitting above 56 TeV and 100 TeV. With nine sources detected, this was the highest-energy source c…
An updated survey of Active Galaxies with the HAWC gamma-ray observatory
Fernando Ureña-Mena, Alberto Carramiñana, Daniel Rosa-González +2
We present an update of the survey of Active Galaxies with the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory. This work adds 567 days of HAWC data to the previously pu…
Study of the long-term Very High Energy emission of the blazars 1ES 1215+3031 and VER J0521+211 with the HAWC gamma-ray observatory
Fernando Ureña-Mena, Alberto Carramiñana, Anna Lia Longinotti +2
Blazars are the most abundant type of extragalactic gamma-ray source, usually presenting high variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. Their Very High Energy (VHE, above 0.…
An optimized search for dark matter in the galactic halo with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +63
The Galactic Halo is a key target for indirect dark matter detection. The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is a high-energy (~300 GeV to >100 TeV) gamma-ray detecto…
A Contribution of the HAWC Observatory to the TeV era in the High Energy Gamma-Ray Astrophysics: The case of the TeV-Halos
Ramiro Torres-Escobedo, Hao Zhou, Eduardo de la Fuente +130
We present a short overview of the TeV-Halos objects as a discovery and a relevant contribution of the High Altitude Water Čerenkov (HAWC) observatory to TeV astrophysics. We discu…
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory in México: The Primary Detector
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +140
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is a second-generation continuously operated, wide field-of-view, TeV gamma-ray observatory. The HAWC observatory and its analy…
Detailed Analysis of the TeV γ-Ray Sources 3HWC J1928+178, 3HWC J1930+188, and the New Source HAWC J1932+192
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +91
The latest High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) point-like source catalog up to 56 TeV reported the detection of two sources in the region of the Galactic plane at galactic longitu…

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…
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…
The all-particle cosmic ray energy spectrum measured with HAWC
J. A. Morales-Soto, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez
Thanks to recent technological development, a new generation of cosmic ray experiments have been developed with more sensitivity to study these particles in the primary energy inte…
Monitoring the radio galaxy M87 with HAWC
T. Capistrán, D. Avila Rojas, M. M. González +2
Studies of radio galaxies at TeV energies are fascinating because their jets are misaligned concerning our sightline. Thus, it provides us with a unique opportunity to study the st…
Use of Machine Learning for gamma/hadron separation with HAWC
T. Capistrán, K. L. Fan, J. T. Linnemann +3
Background showers triggered by hadrons represent over 99.9% of all particles arriving at ground-based gamma-ray observatories. An important stage in the data analysis of these obs…
