HAWC News
The First HAWC Event
The first HAWC event. Shown
is the digitized waveform in
time recorded from the 3
prototype tanks.
With three test tanks deployed at the HAWC site, Andres Sandoval has led a team to deploy a small DAQ and acquire cosmic-ray data with the small array. Data was taken with a commercial FADC with 0.5 ns time binning. The figure is the first event taken with the system. We certainly have a long way to go, but it is refreshing to have the first data.
