Search for gamma-rays from the unusually bright GRB 130427A with the HAWC Gamma-ray Observatory

The HAWC collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +90

The first limits on the prompt emission from the long gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A in the energy band are reported. GRB 130427A was the most powerful b…

VAMOS: a Pathfinder for the HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory

A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +133

VAMOS was a prototype detector built in 2011 at an altitude of 4100m a.s.l. in the state of Puebla, Mexico. The aim of VAMOS was to finalize the design, construction techniques and…

Observation of Small-scale Anisotropy in the Arrival Direction Distribution of TeV Cosmic Rays with HAWC

A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +96

The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory is sensitive to gamma rays and charged cosmic rays at TeV energies. The detector is still under construction, but data acquisit…

Milagro Limits and HAWC Sensitivity for the Rate-Density of Evaporating Primordial Black Holes

A. A. Abdo, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +118

Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are gravitationally collapsed objects that may have been created by density fluctuations in the early universe and could have arbitrarily small masses…

A Trio of GRB-SNe: GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A / SN 2013ez and GRB 130831A / SN 2013fu

Z. Cano, A. de Ugarte Postigo, A. Pozanenko +62

We present optical and near-infrared (NIR) photometry for three gamma-ray burst supernovae (GRB-SNe): GRB 120729A, GRB 130215A / SN 2013ez and GRB 130831A / SN 2013fu. In the case…
