Piritakua: the atmosphere as a high-energy physics laboratory
Hermes León Vargas, Antonio Galván, Andrés Sandoval +3
The atmosphere provides a large set of experimental conditions on which cosmic-ray induced high-energy hadron interactions can take place. These conditions include: sudden changes…
Science Prospects for the Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory: SWGO
SWGO Collaboration, P. Abreu, R. Alfaro +303
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy is now well established as a key observational approach to address critical topics at the frontiers of astroparticle physics and high-energy astrop…
Detection of vertical muons with the HAWC water Cherenkov detectors and its application to gamma/hadron discrimination
Ariel Zuñiga-Reyes, Alberto Hernández, Aldo Miranda-Aguilar +6
The HAWC observatory reconstructs atmospheric showers induced by very high-energy primary cosmic- or gamma-rays. Cosmic-rays with hadronic nature are several orders of magnitude mo…
Searching for TeV DM evidence from Dwarf Irregular Galaxies with the HAWC Observatory
Sergio Hernández Cadena, Rubén Alfaro, Andrés Sandoval +5
The dynamics of dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxies are observed to be dominated by dark matter (DM). Recently, the DM density distribution has been studied for 31 dIrrs. Their extende…
Capability of the HAWC gamma-ray observatory for the indirect detection of ultra-high energy neutrinos
Hermes León Vargas, Andrés Sandoval, Ernesto Belmont +1
The detection of ultra-high energy neutrinos, with energies in the PeV range or above, is a topic of great interest in modern astroparticle physics. The importance comes from the f…
Search for TeV Gamma-Ray Emission from Point-like Sources in the Inner Galactic Plane with a Partial Configuration of the HAWC Observatory
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +95
A survey of the inner Galaxy region of Galactic longitude l in [+15, +50] degree and latitude b in [-4,+4] degree is performed using one-third of the High Altitude Water Cherenkov…
