Search for Gamma Ray Transient Activity with the HAWC Observatory at the locations of Fast Radio Bursts*

Over the past few years the number of known fast radio bursts (FRBs) has grown rapidly, yet we still don't have a clear picture of the progenitors of these events. Multiwavelength follow up of these transients will help constrain the available models for FRBs, and the HAWC Gamma-Ray Observatory has data covering a large number of FRBs. The HAWC data set contains contemporaneous observations of over 200 FRB events which was searched for short time scale gamma-ray emission. For each FRB, a time window of 100s before to 500s after the reported time were searched for bursts of 1 s, 5 s and 10 s duration. We then perform a simulation of the background at that location and distance over the same duration, and the two resulting distributions are compared to see the probability of a gamma-ray excess on any time window surrounding the FRB. The limits placed on the short timescale gamma-ray emission is also used to set an energy ratio of TeV gamma ray to radio detection which can be used to constrain models used to explain FRBs.
