Monte Carlo simulations for the ANTARES underwater neutrino telescope
The ANTARES Collaboration, A. Albert, M. André +133
Monte Carlo simulations are a unique tool to check the response of a detector and to monitor its performance. For a deep-sea neutrino telescope, the variability of the environmenta…
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…
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…
The Sensitivity of HAWC to High-Mass Dark Matter Annihilations
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +101
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is a wide field-of-view detector sensitive to gamma rays of 100 GeV to a few hundred TeV. Located in central Mexico at 19 degre…
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…
The HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory: Dark Matter, Cosmology, and Fundamental Physics
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +99
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma Ray Observatory (HAWC) is designed to perform a synoptic survey of the TeV sky. The high energy coverage of the experiment will enable studi…
