The Fourth HAWC Catalog of Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Sources
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, E. Anita-Rangel +87
We present an updated catalog of TeV gamma-ray sources based on the fifth pass of data from the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory. This release benefits from improve…
Study of the IC 443 region with the HAWC observatory
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, M. Araya +89
Supernova remnants are one potential source class considered a PeVatron (i.e. capable of accelerating cosmic rays above PeV energies). The shock fronts produced after the explosion…
Absence of TeV halos around millisecond pulsars
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +82
TeV halos are extended very-high-energy (VHE; 0.1-100 TeV) gamma-ray emission around middle-aged pulsars. So far they have only been found around isolated pulsars, but it has been…
Extended TeV Halos May Commonly Exist around Middle-Aged Pulsars
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +81
Extended gamma-ray emission around isolated pulsars at TeV energies, also known as TeV halos, have been found around a handful of middle-aged pulsars. The halos are significantly m…
Constraints on diffuse X-ray Emission from the TeV halo Candidate HESS J1813-126
David Guevel, Kim L Page, Kaya Mori +2
Extended regions of very high energy -ray emission associated with middle-aged pulsars have been found by -ray observatories. These regions, called TeV halos or pulsar halo…
Orbital Modulation of Gamma-Rays Beyond 100 TeV from LS 5039
R. Alfaro, M. Araya, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +88
Gamma-ray binaries are systems composed of a compact object orbiting a massive companion star. The interaction between these two objects can drive relativistic outflows, either jet…
