HAWC Study of the Ultra-High-Energy Spectrum of MGRO J1908+06
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +97
We report TeV gamma-ray observations of the ultra-high-energy source MGRO J1908+06 using data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory. This source is one of the h…
Searching for TeV gamma-ray emission from SGR\,1935+2154 during its 2020 X-ray and radio bursting phase
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +251
Magnetar hyperflares are the most plausible explanation for fast radio bursts (FRB) -- enigmatic powerful radio pulses with durations of several milliseconds and high brightness te…
Combined dark matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS
Celine Armand, Eric Charles, Mattia di Mauro +13
Cosmological and astrophysical observations suggest that 85\% of the total matter of the Universe is made of Dark Matter (DM). However, its nature remains one of the most challengi…
The gamma-ray emission from 3HWC J1928+178
Armelle Jardin-Blicq
The gamma-ray source 3HWC J1928+178, discovered by HAWC, is coincident with the 82 kyr pulsar PSR J1928+1746, located 4 kpc away. It has not been reported by any Imaging atmospheri…
Particle Acceleration in the Cygnus Superbubble
B. Hona
The Cygnus Cocoon is the first gamma-ray superbubble powered by a massive stellar association, the OB2 association. It was postulated that the combined effects of the stellar winds…
The all-particle cosmic ray energy spectrum measured with HAWC
J. A. Morales-Soto, J. C. Arteaga-Velázquez
Thanks to recent technological development, a new generation of cosmic ray experiments have been developed with more sensitivity to study these particles in the primary energy inte…
Evidence of 100 TeV -ray emission from HESS J1702-420: A new PeVatron candidate
L. Giunti, B. Khelifi, K. Kosack +1
The identification of active PeVatrons, hadronic particle accelerators reaching the knee of the cosmic-ray spectrum (at the energy of few PeV), is crucial to understand the origin…
LMC N132D: A mature supernova remnant with a power-law gamma-ray spectrum extending beyond 8 TeV
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +233
We analyzed 252 hours of High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) observations towards the supernova remnant (SNR) LMC N132D that were accumulated between December 2004 and March…
Characterization of the background for a neutrino search with the HAWC observatory
HAWC Collaboration, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +59
The close location of the HAWC observatory to the largest volcano in Mexico allows to perform a search for neutrino-induced horizontal muon and tau charged leptons. The section of…
Monitoring the radio galaxy M87 with HAWC
T. Capistrán, D. Avila Rojas, M. M. González +2
Studies of radio galaxies at TeV energies are fascinating because their jets are misaligned concerning our sightline. Thus, it provides us with a unique opportunity to study the st…
Use of Machine Learning for gamma/hadron separation with HAWC
T. Capistrán, K. L. Fan, J. T. Linnemann +3
Background showers triggered by hadrons represent over 99.9% of all particles arriving at ground-based gamma-ray observatories. An important stage in the data analysis of these obs…
Horizontal muon track identification with neural networks in HAWC
J. R. Angeles Camacho, H. León Vargas
Nowadays the implementation of artificial neural networks in high-energy physics has obtained excellent results on improving signal detection. In this work we propose to use neural…
TeV emission of Galactic plane sources with HAWC and H.E.S.S
H. Abdalla, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +318
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory and the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) are two leading instruments in the ground-based very-high-energy gamma-ray d…
Search for dark matter annihilation signals from unidentified Fermi-LAT objects with H.E.S.S
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdallah, F. Aharonian +226
Cosmological -body simulations show that Milky Way-sized galaxies harbor a population of unmerged dark matter subhalos. These subhalos could shine in gamma-rays and be eventuall…
Revealing x-ray and gamma ray temporal and spectral similarities in the GRB 190829A afterglow
H. E. S. S. Collaboration
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which are bright flashes of gamma rays from extragalactic sources followed by fading afterglow emission, are associated with stellar core collapse events.…
Search for dark matter annihilation in the dwarf irregular galaxy WLM with H.E.S.S
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdallah, R. Adam +232
We search for an indirect signal of dark matter through very high-energy gamma rays from the Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte (WLM) dwarf irregular galaxy. The pair annihilation of dark matte…
HAWC observations of the acceleration of very-high-energy cosmic rays in the Cygnus Cocoon
