Data Acquisition Architecture and Online Processing System for the HAWC gamma-ray observatory
HAWC collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +105
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov observatory (HAWC) is an air shower array devised for TeV gamma-ray astronomy. HAWC is located at an altitude of 4100 m a.s.l. in Sierra Negra, Me…
A high-level analysis framework for HAWC
Patrick W. Younk, Robert J. Lauer, Giacomo Vianello +4
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory continuously observes gamma-rays between 100 GeV to 100 TeV in an instantaneous field of view of about 2 steradians above the a…
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…
Origin of atmospheric aerosols at the Pierre Auger Observatory using studies of air mass trajectories in South America
Pierre Auger Collaboration, Gabriele Curci
The Pierre Auger Observatory is making significant contributions towards understanding the nature and origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. One of its main challenges is the mon…
The HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory: Design, Calibration, and Operation
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +99
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma Ray Observatory (HAWC) is under construction 4100 meters above sea level at Sierra Negra, Mexico. We describe the design and cabling of the…
Antennas for the Detection of Radio Emission Pulses from Cosmic-Ray induced Air Showers at the Pierre Auger Observatory
P. Abreu, M. Aglietta, M. Ahlers +512
The Pierre Auger Observatory is exploring the potential of the radio detection technique to study extensive air showers induced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays. The Auger Engineer…
