Constraining the Photon Intensity of Extragalactic Background Light with the HAWC Observatory for the Blazar Mrk 421

R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, A. Andrés +79

The blazar Mrk 421 exhibits rapid variability over a wide range of timescales. Spectral differences have been observed during the different emission states of Mrk 421. During the h…

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…

Longtime Monitoring of TeV Radio Galaxies with HAWC

R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, E. Anita-Rangel +85

We present the monitoring of the TeV-emitting radio galaxies M87, NGC~1275, 3C~264, and IC~310 with the High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) over a period of approximat…

Absence of TeV halos around millisecond pulsars

A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +82

TeV halos are extended very-high-energy (VHE; 0.1-100 TeV) gamma-ray emission around middle-aged pulsars. So far they have only been found around isolated pulsars, but it has been…

Orbital Modulation of Gamma-Rays Beyond 100 TeV from LS 5039

R. Alfaro, M. Araya, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +88

Gamma-ray binaries are systems composed of a compact object orbiting a massive companion star. The interaction between these two objects can drive relativistic outflows, either jet…

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…
