HAWC GRB项目前一年半的结果

Results from the first one and a half years of the HAWC GRB program

Joshua Wood

摘要:

高海拔水切伦科夫(HAWC)天文台是位于墨西哥普埃布拉州的地面TeV伽马射线天文台,海拔4100 m。它的$\sim$ 22,000 m $^2$仪器区、宽视场(2 sr)和$>$ 95%的反射率使其成为发现$>$ 100 GeV伽马射线暴(GRB)发射的理想仪器。这一发现将提供有关伽玛射线暴的起源以及对EBL模型的限制和违反洛伦兹不变性的关键信息。我们在这里提出的结果,我们目前的伽玛射线暴搜索方法,其中包括全天空搜索以及快速跟踪的伽玛射线暴报告的卫星,经过一年半的数据与完整的HAWC探测器。

英文摘要:

The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory is a ground-based TeV gamma-ray observatory in the state of Puebla, Mexico at an altitude of 4100 m above sea level. Its $\sim$22,000 m$^2$ instrumented area, wide field of view (2 sr), and $>$95% uptime make it an ideal instrument for discovering gamma-ray burst (GRB) emission at $>$100 GeV. Such a discovery would provide key information about the origins of prompt GRB emission as well as constraints on EBL models and the violation of Lorentz invariance. We present here the results of our current GRB search methods, which include an all-sky search as well as fast follow-ups of GRBs reported by satellites, after one and a half years of data with the full HAWC detector.
