Abstract

The Large Aperture GRB Observatory (LAGO) is aiming at the detection of the high energy (around 100GeV) component of Gamma Ray Bursts, using the single particle technique in arrays of Water Cherenkov Detectors (WCD) in high mountain sites (Chacaltaya, Bolivia, 5300m a.s.l., Pico Espejo, Venezuela, 4750m a.s.l., Sierra Negra, Mexico, 4650m a.s.l). WCD at high altitude offer a unique possibility of detecting low gamma fluxes in the 10GeV - 1TeV range. The status of the Observatory and data collected from 2007 to date will be presented.
