Very high energy gamma-ray astronomy with HAWC
چکیده انگلیسی
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is an air-shower array located in Mexico. It is sensitive to the highest energy photons we detect at the Earth, reaching energies of several tens of TeV. The observatory was completed more than one year ago and we are presenting in this contribution the first results about its performance. We also show the results of the first-year survey, the first flaring events detected by the observatory, its sensitivity to extended sources and the plans for the upgrade that is currently taking place.
