Scientific paper

Gamma-ray bursts are amazing phenomena involving relativistic jets and the formation of black holes. Our understanding of these explosions and of the physics of their extreme environments would be greatly expanded by the observation of high energy gamma-rays. However, such observations of these unpredictable, rare, and short duration events are difficult. The Milagro detector has been used to search for gamma-ray bursts, but no significant emission has been observed. The HAWC (High Altitude Water Cherenkov) observatory is a proposed next generation detector based on the technology of Milagro that will have more than 15 times the sensitivity of Milagro to search for the highest energy emission from gamma-ray bursts.
