Observation of the TeV gamma-ray source MGRO J1908+06 with ARGO-YBJ

YBJ Collaboration

The extended gamma ray source MGRO J1908+06, discovered by the Milagro air shower detector in 2007, has been observed for about 4 years by the ARGO-YBJ experiment at TeV energies,…

Observation of the Cosmic Ray Moon shadowing effect with ARGO-YBJ

YBJ Collaboration

Cosmic rays are hampered by the Moon and a deficit in its direction is expected (the so-called \emph{Moon shadow}). The Moon shadow is an important tool to determine the performanc…

Gamma ray flares from Mrk421 in 2008 observed with the ARGO-YBJ detector

G. Aielli et al.

In 2008 the blazar Markarian 421 entered a very active phase and was one of the brightest sources in the sky at TeV energies, showing frequent flaring episodes. Using the data of A…

High Altitude test of RPCs for the ARGO-YBJ experiment

YBJ Collaboration

A 50 m**2 RPC carpet was operated at the YangBaJing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (Tibet) located 4300 m a.s.l. The performance of RPCs in detecting Extensive Air Showers was studied. Effi…
