An optimized search for dark matter in the galactic halo with HAWC

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +63

The Galactic Halo is a key target for indirect dark matter detection. The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is a high-energy (~300 GeV to >100 TeV) gamma-ray detecto…

Long-term spectra of the blazars Mrk 421 and Mrk 501 at TeV energies seen by HAWC

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +75

The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Gamma-Ray Observatory surveys the very high energy sky in the 300 GeV to TeV energy range. HAWC has detected two blazars above …

HAWC Search for High-Mass Microquasars

HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +87

Microquasars with high-mass companion stars are promising very-high-energy (VHE; 0.1-100 TeV) gamma-ray emitters, but their behaviors above 10 TeV are poorly known. Using the High…

Probing the Sea of Cosmic Rays by Measuring Gamma-Ray Emission from Passive Giant Molecular Clouds with HAWC

A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +87

The study of high-energy gamma rays from passive Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in our Galaxy is an indirect way to characterize and probe the paradigm of the "sea" of cosmic rays i…

Evidence that Ultra-High-Energy Gamma Rays are a Universal Feature Near Powerful Pulsars

HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +97

The highest-energy known gamma-ray sources are all located within 0.5 degrees of extremely powerful pulsars. This raises the question of whether ultra-high-energy (UHE; 56 TeV)…

A survey of active galaxies at TeV photon energies with the HAWC gamma-ray observatory

A. Albert, C. Alvarez, J. R. Angeles Camacho +86

The High Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma-Ray Observatory (HAWC) continuously detects TeV photons and particles within its large field-of-view, accumulating every day a deeper exposu…
