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…

Galactic Gamma-Ray Diffuse Emission at TeV energies with HAWC Data

R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velazquez +77

The Galactic gamma-ray diffuse emission (GDE) is emitted by cosmic rays (CRs), ultra-relativistic protons and electrons, interacting with gas and electromagnetic radiation fields i…

Modelling of highly extended Gamma-ray emission around the Geminga Pulsar as detected with H.E.S.S

A. M. W. Mitchell, S. Caroff

Geminga is an enigmatic radio-quiet gamma-ray pulsar located at a mere 250 pc distance from Earth. Extended very-high-energy gamma-ray emission around the pulsar has been detected…

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 young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1 in rays as seen with H.E.S.S

Lars Mohrmann, Andreas Specovius, Romed Rauth +2

Massive stellar clusters have recently been hypothesised as candidates for the acceleration of hadronic cosmic rays up to PeV energies. Previously, the H.E.S.S. Collaboration has r…

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…
