Three-Peak GRBs and Their Implications for Central Engines
Enrique Moreno Méndez, Nissim Fraija, Barbara Patricelli
GRB 110709B presented a peculiar three-peak lightcurve; this burst twice triggered the BAT detector onboard Swift. The two triggers were separated by minutes. In order to…
The Hadronic Picture of the Radiogalaxy M87
A. Marinelli, N. Fraija, B. Patricelli
Very high energy gamma-ray emission of Fanaroff-Riley I objects is not univocally explained by a single emission model. Leptonic models with one and multi-zone emission regions, oc…
Search for gamma-rays from the unusually bright GRB 130427A with the HAWC Gamma-ray Observatory
The HAWC collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +90
The first limits on the prompt emission from the long gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A in the energy band are reported. GRB 130427A was the most powerful b…
VAMOS: a Pathfinder for the HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +133
VAMOS was a prototype detector built in 2011 at an altitude of 4100m a.s.l. in the state of Puebla, Mexico. The aim of VAMOS was to finalize the design, construction techniques and…
Observation of Small-scale Anisotropy in the Arrival Direction Distribution of TeV Cosmic Rays with HAWC
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +96
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory is sensitive to gamma rays and charged cosmic rays at TeV energies. The detector is still under construction, but data acquisit…
Milagro Limits and HAWC Sensitivity for the Rate-Density of Evaporating Primordial Black Holes
A. A. Abdo, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +118
Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are gravitationally collapsed objects that may have been created by density fluctuations in the early universe and could have arbitrarily small masses…
