Descripción

Key extragalactic sources of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma rays include blazars, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), and transient phenomena. Studying these targets provides critical insights into astrophysical processes such as black hole accretion, particle acceleration, and explosion dynamics. The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO), located in China, is a multi-purpose facility designed to detect cosmic rays and gamma rays with energies ranging from a few hundred GeV to several hundred PeV. One of LHAASO's three sub-arrays, the Water Cherenkov Detector Array (WCDA), offers an ideal platform for capturing such flaring activity due to its wide field of view, high duty cycle, and sensitivity. This capability enables deeper understanding of the underlying astrophysical phenomena. In this talk, we will review extragalactic sources detected by LHAASO-WCDA and discuss transient event analysis, covering the monitoring framework, analysis pipeline, and preliminary results.
