A Blind Search for Bursts of Very High Enery Gamma Rays with Milagro

Vlasios Vasileiou

Milagro is a water-Cherenkov detector that observes the extended air showers produced by cosmic gamma rays of energies E>100GeV. The effective area of Milagro peaks at energies E~1…

The Large Scale Cosmic-Ray Anisotropy as Observed with Milagro

A. A. Abdo, B. T. Allen, T. Aune +30

Results are presented of a harmonic analysis of the large scale cosmic-ray anisotropy as observed by the Milagro observatory. We show a two-dimensional display of the sidereal anis…

Discovery of Localized Regions of Excess 10-TeV Cosmic Rays

A. A. Abdo, B. Allen, T. Aune +30

An analysis of 7 years of Milagro data performed on a 10-degree angular scale has found two localized regions of excess of unknown origin with greater than 12 sigma significance. B…

Photocathode-Uniformity Tests of the Hamamatsu R5912 Photomultiplier Tubes Used in the Milagro Experiment

V. Vasileiou, R. W. Ellsworth, A. J. Smith

The Milagro experiment observes the extensive air showers produced by very high energy gamma-rays impacting the Earth's atmosphere. Milagro uses 898 Hamamatsu R5912 Photomultiplier…

Milagro Constraints on Very High Energy Emission from Short Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts

A. A. Abdo, B. T. Allen, D. Berley +27

Recent rapid localizations of short, hard gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by the Swift and HETE satellites have led to the observation of the first afterglows and the measurement of the fi…

TeV Gamma-Ray Sources from a Survey of the Galactic Plane with Milagro

A. A. Abdo, B. Allen, D. Berley +31

A survey of Galactic gamma-ray sources at a median energy of ~20 TeV has been performed using the Milagro Gamma Ray Observatory. Eight candidate sources of TeV emission are detecte…
