Observation of TeV Gamma Rays from the Crab Nebula with Milagro Using a New Background Rejection Technique

The Milagro Collaboration

The recent advances in TeV gamma-ray astronomy are largely the result of the ability to differentiate between extensive air showers generated by gamma rays and hadronic cosmic rays…

The high-energy gamma-ray fluence and energy spectrum of GRB 970417a from observations with Milagrito

R. Atkins, W. Benbow, D. Berley +38

Evidence of TeV emission from GRB970417a has been previously reported using data from the Milagrito detector. Constraints on the TeV fluence and the energy spectrum are now derived…

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…
