First Joint Observations of Space Weather Events over Mexico
V. De la Luz, J. A González-Esparza, M. A. Sergeeva +13
The Mexican Space Weather Service (SCiESMEX in Spanish) and National Space Weather Laboratory (LANCE in Spanish) were organized in 2014 and in 2016 respectively to provide space we…
Type II supernova spectral diversity I: Observations, sample characterization and spectral line evolution
Claudia P. Gutiérrez, Joseph P. Anderson, Mario Hamuy +23
We present 888 visual-wavelength spectra of 122 nearby type II supernovae (SNe II) obtained between 1986 and 2009, and ranging between 3 and 363 days post explosion. In this first…
UBVRIz Light Curves of 51 Type II Supernovae
Lluís Galbany, Mario Hamuy, Mark M. Phillips +34
We present a compilation of UBV RIz light curves of 51 type II supernovae discovered during the course of four different surveys during 1986 to 2003: the Cerro Tololo Supernova Sur…
VAMOS: a Pathfinder for the HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +133
VAMOS was a prototype detector built in 2011 at an altitude of 4100m a.s.l. in the state of Puebla, Mexico. The aim of VAMOS was to finalize the design, construction techniques and…
Characterizing the V-band light-curves of hydrogen-rich type II supernovae
Joseph P. Anderson, Santiago González-Gaitán, Mario Hamuy +26
We present an analysis of the diversity of V-band light-curves of hydrogen-rich type II supernovae. Analyzing a sample of 116 supernovae, several magnitude measurements are defined…
Persistent C II Absorption in the Normal Type Ia Supernova 2002fk
Régis Cartier, Mario Hamuy, Giuliano Pignata +16
We present well-sampled photometry of SN 2002fk starting 12 days before maximum light through 122 days after peak brightness, along with a series of 15 optical spectra f…
The HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory: Design, Calibration, and Operation
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +99
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma Ray Observatory (HAWC) is under construction 4100 meters above sea level at Sierra Negra, Mexico. We describe the design and cabling of the…
The HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory: Dark Matter, Cosmology, and Fundamental Physics
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +99
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma Ray Observatory (HAWC) is designed to perform a synoptic survey of the TeV sky. The high energy coverage of the experiment will enable studi…
The HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory: Sensitivity to Steady and Transient Sources of Gamma Rays
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro +99
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Gamma-Ray Observatory is designed to record air showers produced by cosmic rays and gamma rays between 100 GeV and 100 TeV. Because of its…
Sensitivity of the High Altitude Water Cherenkov Detector to Sources of Multi-TeV Gamma Rays
A. U. Abeysekara, R. Alfaro, C. Alvarez +97
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is an array of large water Cherenkov detectors sensitive to gamma rays and hadronic cosmic rays in the energy band between 100…
On the sensitivity of the HAWC observatory to gamma-ray bursts
HAWC collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, J. A. Aguilar +145
We present the sensitivity of HAWC to Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). HAWC is a very high-energy gamma-ray observatory currently under construction in Mexico at an altitude of 4100 m. It…
