We present the first catalog of gamma-ray sources emitting above 56 and 100 TeV with data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory, a wide field-of-view observatory capable of detecting gamma rays up to a few hundred TeV. Nine sources are observed above 56 TeV, all of which are likely Galactic in origin. Three sources continue emitting past 100 TeV, making this the highest-energy gamma-ray source catalog to date. We report the integral flux of each of these objects. We also report spectra for three highest-energy sources and discuss the possibility that they are PeVatrons.

  1. Carpet-3 detection of a photon-like air shower with estimated primary energy above 100 TeV in a spatial and temporal coincidence with GRB 221009A

    astro-ph.HE 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Carpet-3 reports a photon-like air shower with estimated energy around 300 TeV arriving from the direction of GRB 221009A about 75 minutes after the trigger, with a coincidence probability of about 0.9 percent.

  2. Observation of VER J2019+368 with the SST-1M stereoscopic system

    astro-ph.HE 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    SST-1M stereoscopic data detect VER J2019+368 at post-trial 6.5 sigma and measure a power-law spectrum with index 2.44 up to 100 TeV.
