Information Technologies on High-Energy Astrophysics: Cosmic Ray Anisotropy using HAWC Observatory
The detection of astroparticles, specially at high energies (>100 GeV), requires special techniques and instruments (telescopes or observatories), for example, those that use the Water Cherenkov radiation technique.

| Summary: | The detection of astroparticles, specially at high energies (>100 GeV), requires special techniques and instruments (telescopes or observatories), for example, those that use the Water Cherenkov radiation technique. In this paper we show an example of how Information Technologies can be used to perform maps and produce high impact results. The latter case is illustrated in the summary of the generation of a high statistics map of cosmic rays at 10 TeV in the northern sky with data collected by the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. |
