Search for Gamma-ray Spectral Lines from Dark Matter Annihilation in Dwarf Galaxies with the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory
The HAWC Collaboration
Local dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are nearby dark-matter dominated systems, making them excellent targets for searching for gamma rays from particle dark matter interactions.…
Constraints on Lorentz invariance violation from HAWC observations of gamma rays above 100 TeV
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +90
Due to the high energies and long distances to the sources, astrophysical observations provide a unique opportunity to test possible signatures of Lorentz invariance violation (LIV…
Combined Dark Matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, HESS, MAGIC and VERITAS
Louise Oakes, Celine Armand, Eric Charles +13
The search for Dark Matter (DM) has great potential to reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. As such, searches for evidence of DM particles are being carried out using a wide r…
HAWC Contributions to the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC2019)
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +127
List of proceedings from the HAWC Collaboration presented at the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference, 24 July - 1 August 2019, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.
Multiple Galactic Sources with Emission Above 56 TeV Detected by HAWC
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert +99
We present the first catalog of gamma-ray sources emitting above 56 and 100 TeV with data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory, a wide field-of-view observator…
Constraints on the Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background with HAWC
J. Patrick Harding
The Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background (DGB) above 100 GeV at high-latitudes is expected to be produced by unresolved extragalactic objects such as active galactic nuclei, isotropic Gala…
The Southern Wide-Field Gamma-Ray Observatory (SWGO): A Next-Generation Ground-Based Survey Instrument for VHE Gamma-Ray Astronomy
P. Abreu, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +95
We describe plans for the development of the Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory (SWGO), a next-generation instrument with sensitivity to the very-high-energy (VHE) band to b…
Searching for Dark Matter in the Galactic Halo with a Wide Field of View TeV Gamma-ray Observatory in the Southern Hemisphere
Aion Viana, Harm Schoorlemmer, Andrea Albert +3
Despite mounting evidence that dark matter (DM) exists in the Universe, its fundamental nature remains unknown. We present sensitivity estimates to detect DM particles with a futur…
Pulsars in a Bubble? Following Electron Diffusion in the Galaxy with TeV Gamma Rays
H. Fleischhack, A. Albert, C. Alvarez +32
TeV Halos, extended regions of TeV gamma-ray emission around middle-aged pulsars, have recently been established as a new source class in gamma-ray astronomy. These halos have been…
Supermassive black holes at high redshifts
Vaidehi S. Paliya, Marco Ajello, Lea Marcotulli +31
MeV blazars are the most luminous persistent sources in the Universe and emit most of their energy in the MeV band. These objects display very large jet powers and accretion lumino…
Looking Under a Better Lamppost: MeV-scale Dark Matter Candidates
Regina Caputo, Tim Linden, John Tomsick +6
The era of precision cosmology has revealed that about 85% of the matter in the universe is dark matter. Two well-motivated candidates are weakly interacting massive particles (WIM…
Energetic Particles of Cosmic Accelerators II: Active Galactic Nuclei and Gamma-ray Bursts
Tonia M. Venters, Sylvain Guiriec, Amy Y. Lien +26
The high-energy universe has revealed that energetic particles are ubiquitous in the cosmos and play a vital role in the cultivation of cosmic environments on all scales. Though th…
Science Case for a Wide Field-of-View Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Observatory in the Southern Hemisphere
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, H. Ashkar +100
We outline the science motivation for SGSO, the Southern Gamma-Ray Survey Observatory. SGSO will be a next-generation wide field-of-view gamma-ray survey instrument, sensitive to g…
All-Sky Measurement of the Anisotropy of Cosmic Rays at 10 TeV and Mapping of the Local Interstellar Magnetic Field
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +400
We present the first full-sky analysis of the cosmic ray arrival direction distribution with data collected by the HAWC and IceCube observatories in the Northern and Southern hemis…
MAGIC and Fermi-LAT gamma-ray results on unassociated HAWC sources
M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +336
The HAWC Collaboration released the 2HWC catalog of TeV sources, in which 19 show no association with any known high-energy (HE; E > 10 GeV) or very-high-energy (VHE; E > 300 GeV)…
