VizieR Online Data Catalog: 3rd HAWC cat. of VHE gamma-ray sources (3HWC) (Albert+, 2020)
Abstract
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) consists of 300 water tanks, each filled with ~200,000 liters of purified water and instrumented with four photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The HAWC observatory is sensitive to gamma rays in an energy range from hundreds of GeV to hundreds of TeV.
The 3HWC catalog is based on data collected by the HAWC observatory between 2014 November and 2019 June, corresponding to a livetime of 1523 days --about 3 times the livetime of the 2HWC catalog data set. For the most part, the construction of the catalog follows the same method as the previous 2HWC catalog, which is described in Abeysekara+ (2017, J/ApJ/843/40). (4 data files).- Publication:
