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…

Probing the mass composition of TeV cosmic rays with HAWC

J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez

In this contribution, we have investigated the energy spectra of the elemental mass groups of cosmic rays for the Light (H+He), medium (C+O) and heavy (Ne-Fe) components using the…

HAWC, VERITAS, Fermi-LAT and XMM-Newton follow-up observations of the unidentified ultra-high-energy gamma-ray source LHAASO J2108+5157

The VERITAS collaboration, C. B. Adams, P. Bangale +142

We report observations of the ultra-high-energy gamma-ray source LHAASO J21085157, utilizing VERITAS, HAWC, Fermi-LAT, and XMM-Newton. VERITAS has collected 40 hours of d…

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…
