Extended gamma-ray sources around pulsars constrain the origin of the positron flux at Earth

A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +113

The unexpectedly high flux of cosmic ray positrons detected at Earth may originate from nearby astrophysical sources, dark matter, or unknown processes of cosmic-ray secondary prod…

A Search for Dark Matter in the Galactic Halo with HAWC

A. U. Abeysekara, A. M. Albert, R. Alfaro +100

The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory is a wide field-of-view observatory sensitive to 500 GeV - 100 TeV gamma rays and cosmic rays. With its observations…

All-particle cosmic ray energy spectrum measured by the HAWC experiment from 10 to 500 TeV

HAWC Collaboration, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +98

We report on the measurement of the all-particle cosmic ray energy spectrum with the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory in the energy range 10 to 500 TeV. HAWC is a g…

Inferences on Mass Composition and Tests of Hadronic Interactions from 0.3 to 100 EeV using the water-Cherenkov Detectors of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403

We present a new method for probing the hadronic interaction models at ultra-high energy and extracting details about mass composition. This is done using the time profiles of the…

Spectral Calibration of the Fluorescence Telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +403

We present a novel method to measure precisely the relative spectral response of the fluorescence telescopes of the Pierre Auger Observatory. We used a portable light source based…

Observation of a Large-scale Anisotropy in the Arrival Directions of Cosmic Rays above eV

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +404

Cosmic rays are atomic nuclei arriving from outer space that reach the highest energies observed in nature. Clues to their origin come from studying the distribution of their arriv…
