description | VAMOS1VAMOS is an acronym for: Verification and Assessment Measuring of Observatory Subsystem.1 was a prototype detector built in 2011 at an altitude of 4100m a.s.l. in the state of Puebla, Mexico. The aim of VAMOS was to finalize the design, construction techniques and data acquisition system of the HAWC observatory. HAWC is an air-shower array currently under construction at the same site of VAMOS with the purpose to study the TeV sky. The VAMOS setup included six water Cherenkov detectors and two different data acquisition systems. It was in operation between October 2011 and May 2012 with an average live time of 30%. Besides the scientific verification purposes, the eight months of data were used to obtain the results presented in this paper: the detector response to the Forbush decrease of March 2012, and the analysis of possible emission, at energies above 30GeV, for long gamma-ray bursts GRB111016B and GRB120328B. |

is an acronym for: Verification and Assessment Measuring of Observatory Subsystem.1 was a prototype detector built in 2011 at an altitude of 4100m a.s.l. in the state of Puebla, Mexico. The aim of VAMOS was to finalize the design, construction techniques and data acquisition system of the HAWC observatory. HAWC is an air-shower array currently under construction at the same site of VAMOS with the purpose to study the TeV sky. The VAMOS setup included six water Cherenkov detectors and two different data acquisition systems. It was in operation between October 2011 and May 2012 with an average live time of 30%. Besides the scientific verification purposes, the eight months of data were used to obtain the results presented in this paper: the detector response to the Forbush decrease of March 2012, and the analysis of possible emission, at energies above 30GeV, for long gamma-ray bursts GRB111016B and GRB120328B.</abstract><cop>Netherlands</cop><pub>Elsevier B.V</pub><doi>10.1016/j.astropartphys.2014.08.004</doi><tpages>9</tpages><oa>free_for_read</oa></addata></record> |
