Inverse Compton scattering occurring in a reverse-shock scenario involving a kilonova: A channel of TeV gamma-ray photons
Nissim Fraija, Jorge Alexis Montes, Sara Fraija-Castellanos +1
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are among the most luminous transients in the Universe and constitute prime targets for multimessenger studies, particularly in connection with gravitationa…
Probing the mass composition of TeV cosmic rays with HAWC
J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez
In this contribution, we have investigated the energy spectra of the elemental mass groups of cosmic rays for the Light (H+He), medium (C+O) and heavy (Ne-Fe) components using the…
Search for Signatures of Dark Matter Annihilation in the Galactic Center with HAWC
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, A. Andrés +109
We conduct an indirect dark matter (DM) search in the Galactic Center, focusing on a square region within in Galactic longitude and latutide, using 2,865 days of da…
Study of long-term spectral evolution and X-ray and Gamma-ray correlation of blazars seen by HAWC
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, A. Andrés +94
The HAWC Observatory collected 6 years of extensive data, providing an ideal platform for long-term monitoring of blazars in the Very High Energy (VHE) band, without bias towards s…
Study of the IC 443 region with the HAWC observatory
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, M. Araya +89
Supernova remnants are one potential source class considered a PeVatron (i.e. capable of accelerating cosmic rays above PeV energies). The shock fronts produced after the explosion…
Spectral study of very high energy gamma rays from SS 433 with HAWC
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +78
Very-high-energy (0.1-100 TeV) gamma-ray emission was observed in HAWC data from the lobes of the microquasar SS 433, making them the first set of astrophysical jets that were reso…
TeV Analysis of a Source Rich Region with HAWC Observatory: Is HESS J1809-193 a Potential Hadronic PeVatron?
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +79
HESS J1809-193 is an unidentified TeV source, first detected by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) Collaboration. The emission originates in a source-rich region that i…
Testing the Molecular Cloud Paradigm for Ultra-High-Energy Gamma Ray Emission from the Direction of SNR G106.3+2.7
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +87
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to be capable of accelerating cosmic rays (CRs) to PeV energies. SNR G106.3+2.7 is a prime PeVatron candidate. It is formed by a head region,…
Observation of the Galactic Center PeVatron Beyond 100 TeV with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +99
We report an observation of ultra-high energy (UHE) gamma rays from the Galactic Center region, using seven years of data collected by the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Obse…
Analysis of the Emission and Morphology of the Pulsar Wind Nebula Candidate HAWC J2031+415
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +78
The first TeV gamma-ray source with no lower energy counterparts, TeV J2032+4130, was discovered by HEGRA. It appears in the third HAWC catalog as 3HWC J2031+415 and it is a bright…
Performance of the HAWC Observatory and TeV Gamma-Ray Measurements of the Crab Nebula with Improved Extensive Air Shower Reconstruction Algorithms
A . Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +90
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Gamma-Ray Observatory located on the side of the Sierra Negra volcano in Mexico, has been fully operational since 2015. The HAWC collaborat…
Search for joint multimessenger signals from potential galactic cosmic-ray accelerators with HAWC and IceCube
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +489
The origin of high-energy galactic cosmic rays is yet to be understood, but some galactic cosmic-ray accelerators can accelerate cosmic rays up to PeV energies. The high-energy cos…
Comparing HAWC blazars light curves with different data reconstruction versions
J. A. García-González, M. M. González
We present a comparison of the flux normalization of HAWC sources using 17 months of data that was processed using two different versions of the official data reconstruction used f…
