Session: High Energy Astrophysics Plenary talk

Speaker

Dr Ruben Alfaro (Universidad Nacional Autonoma (MX))

Description

The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is a wide-field-of-view (2sr) and high duty cycle (>95%) gamma detector that operates at an altitude of 4100 m in the state of Puebla, Mexico. Since 2015, HAWC has continuously surveyed the sky, providing a unique insight into the very high energy (>1 TeV) astrophysical sources. In this talk, I will discuss some of the exciting results of HAWC and also its indirect dark matter searches.
