On the gamma-ray emission from the core of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy
Addy J. Evans, Louis E. Strigari, Oskar Svenborn +5
We use data from the Large Area Telescope onboard the Fermi gamma-ray space telescope (Fermi-LAT) to analyze the faint gamma-ray source located at the center of the Sagittarius (Sg…
The TeV Sun Rises: Discovery of Gamma rays from the Quiescent Sun with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +89
We report the first detection of a TeV gamma-ray flux from the solar disk (6.3), based on 6.1 years of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The 0.5--2…
A measurement of the proton plus helium spectrum of cosmic rays in the TeV region with HAWC
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +74
HAWC is an air-shower detector designed to study TeV gamma and cosmic rays. The observatory is composed of a array of water Cherenkov tanks ( deep x…
Limits on the Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background above 10 TeV with HAWC
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +87
The high-energy Diffuse Gamma-Ray Background (DGRB) is expected to be produced by unresolved isotropically distributed astrophysical objects, potentially including dark matter anni…
Report of the Topical Group on Particle Dark Matter for Snowmass 2021
Jodi Cooley, Tongyan Lin, W. Hugh Lippincott +71
This report summarizes the findings of the CF1 Topical Subgroup to Snowmass 2021, which was focused on particle dark matter. One of the most important scientific goals of the next…
Search for Gamma-Ray and Neutrino Coincidences Using HAWC and ANTARES Data
H. A. Ayala Solares, S. Coutu, D. Cowen +228
In the quest for high-energy neutrino sources, the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON) has implemented a new search by combining data from the High Altitude Wat…
Constraints on the very high energy gamma-ray emission from short GRBs with HAWC
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +87
Many gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been observed from radio wavelengths, and a few at very-high energies (VHEs, > 100GeV). The HAWC gamma-ray observatory is well suited to study tra…
Gamma/Hadron Separation with the HAWC Observatory
R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez, J. D. Álvarez +90
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory observes atmospheric showers produced by incident gamma rays and cosmic rays with energy from 300 GeV to more than 10…
Probing the extragalactic mid-infrared background with HAWC
Mateo Fernandez Alonso
The extragalactic background light (EBL) contains all the radiation emitted by nuclear and accretion processes in stars and compact objects since the epoch of recombination. Measur…
Cosmic ray spectrum of protons plus helium nuclei between 6 TeV and 158 TeV from HAWC data
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +74
A measurement with high statistics of the differential energy spectrum of light elements in cosmic rays, in particular, of primary H plus He nuclei, is reported. The spectrum is pr…
Advancing the Landscape of Multimessenger Science in the Next Decade
Kristi Engel, Tiffany Lewis, Marco Stein Muzio +91
The last decade has brought about a profound transformation in multimessenger science. Ten years ago, facilities had been built or were under construction that would eventually dis…
The Future of Gamma-Ray Experiments in the MeV-EeV Range
Kristi Engel, Jordan Goodman, Petra Huentemeyer +95
Gamma-rays, the most energetic photons, carry information from the far reaches of extragalactic space with minimal interaction or loss of information. They bring messages about par…
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier: The landscape of cosmic-ray and high-energy photon probes of particle dark matter
Tsuguo Aramaki, Mirko Boezio, James Buckley +22
This white paper discusses the current landscape and prospects for experiments sensitive to particle dark matter processes producing photons and cosmic rays. Much of the gamma-ray…
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier White Paper: Ultraheavy particle dark matter
Daniel Carney, Nirmal Raj, Yang Bai +25
We outline the unique opportunities and challenges in the search for "ultraheavy" dark matter candidates with masses between roughly and the Planck scale $m_{\rm pl}…
Validation of standardized data formats and tools for ground-level particle-based gamma-ray observatories
A. Albert, R. Alfaro, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez +74
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy is still a rather young field of research, with strong historical connections to particle physics. This is why most observations are conducted by e…
