The High Altitude Water Cherenkov Experiment (HAWC) is a ground-based observatory designed to detect gamma rays and cosmic rays through the use of the Cherenkov radiation phenomenon. Located in Puebla, Mexico, at an altitude of about 4100 meters (approximately 13,450 feet), HAWC is situated in a favorable location for observing high-energy astrophysical phenomena due to its high elevation and low atmospheric interference.
