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…

Milagro Observations of Potential TeV Emitters

A. A. Abdo, A. U. Abeysekara, B. T. Allen +32

This paper reports the results from three targeted searches of Milagro TeV sky maps: two extragalactic point source lists and one pulsar source list. The first extragalactic candid…

The Study of TeV Variability and Duty Cycle of Mrk 421 from 3 Years of Observations with the Milagro Observatory

A. A. Abdo, A. U. Abeysekara, B. T. Allen +36

TeV flaring activity with time scales as short as tens of minutes and an orphan TeV flare have been observed from the blazar Markarian 421 (Mrk 421). The TeV emission from Mrk 421…

Spectrum and Morphology of the Two Brightest Milagro Sources in the Cygnus Region: MGRO J2019+37 and MGRO J2031+41

A. A. Abdo, B. T. Allen, T. Aune +26

The Cygnus region is a very bright and complex portion of the TeV sky, host to unidentified sources and a diffuse excess with respect to conventional cosmic-ray propagation models.…

A Measurement of the Spatial Distribution of Diffuse TeV Gamma Ray Emission from the Galactic Plane with Milagro

A. A. Abdo, B. Allen, T. Aune +33

Diffuse -ray emission produced by the interaction of cosmic-ray particles with matter and radiation in the Galaxy can be used to probe the distribution of cosmic rays and their…
