Published online: 23 March 2017
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory has been fully operational since March 2015. To improve its sensitivity at the highest energies, it is being upgraded with an additional sparse array called outrigger array. We will discuss in this contribution, the different outrigger array components, and the simulation results to optimize it.
