The High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) is an air shower array currently under construction in Mexico at an altitude of 4100 m. HAWC will consist of 300 large water tanks covering an area of about 22000 square meters and instrumented with 4 photomultipliers each. The experimental design allows for highly efficient detection of photon-induced air showers in the TeV and sub-TeV range and gamma-hadron separation. We show that HAWC has a reasonable chance to observe the high-energy power law components of GRBs that extend to 50 GeV. In particular, HAWC will be capable of observing events similar to GRB 090510 and GRB 090902B. The observations (or non-observations) of GRBs by HAWC will provide information on the high-energy spectra of GRBs. An engineering array consisting of 6 water tanks was operated at the HAWC site since September 2011, collecting 3 months of data. An upper limit on high energy emission from GRB 111016B is derived from these data.
The first limits on the prompt emission from the long gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A in the $>100 obreakspacerm{GeV}$ energy band are reported. GRB 130427A was the most powerful burst ever detected with a redshift $zlesssim0.5$ and featured the longes
We present the first catalog of TeV gamma-ray sources realized with the recently completed High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC). It is the most sensitive wide field-of-view TeV telescope currently in operation, with a 1-year survey sensit
The Large Aperture GRB Observatory (LAGO) is aiming at the detection of the high energy (around 100 GeV) component of Gamma Ray Bursts, using the single particle technique in arrays of Water Cherenkov Detectors (WCD) in high mountain sites (Chacaltay
We describe measurements of GeV and TeV cosmic rays with the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma-Ray Observatory, or HAWC. The measurements include the observation of the shadow of the moon; the observation of small-scale and large-scale angular clus
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) has a wide field-of-view (FOV, $sim$2sr) and a high duty cycle ($sim$95%), which make it a powerful survey and monitoring experiment for sources of TeV gamma rays. We present a systematic survey of
