An Ordinary Short Gamma-Ray Burst with Extraordinary Implications: Fermi-GBM Detection of GRB 170817A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
On 2017 August 17 at 12:41:06 UTC the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) detected and triggered on the short gamma-ray burst (GRB) 170817A. Approximately 1.7 s prior to this GRB, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory triggered on a ...

GRB 221009A: The BOAT

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
GRB 221009A has been referred to as the brightest of all time (BOAT). We investigate the veracity of this statement by comparing it with a half century of prompt gamma-ray burst observations.

Spectra and Light Curves of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The recently discovered gamma-ray burst afterglow is believed to be described reasonably well by synchrotron emission from a decelerating relativistic shell that collides with an external medium. To compare theoretical models with afterglow observations,

GECAM Localization of High-energy Transients and the Systematic Error

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The Gravitational Wave High-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is a pair of microsatellites (i.e., GECAM-A and GECAM-B) dedicated to monitoring gamma-ray transients including the high-energy electromagnetic counterparts of ...

Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows in the Multimessenger Era: Numerical Models and Closure Relations [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with gravitational wave events are, and will likely continue to be, viewed at a larger inclination than GRBs without gravitational wave detections.

Gamma-ray Vortex Burst in Nonlinear Thomson Scattering with Refocusing Spiral Plasma Mirror

open access: yesUltrafast Science, 2023
The gamma-ray vortex burst in the nonlinear Thomson scattering when the laser wakefield accelerated electron bunch collides with an ultra-intense Laguerre–Gaussian laser that was reflected from the refocusing spiral plasma mirror.

GAMMA RAY BURST FOLLOW-UPS WITH BOOTES

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2014
The Burst Observer and Optical Transient Exploring System (BOOTES), is a global robotic observatory network, which started in 1998 with Spanish leadership devoted to study optical emissions from gamma ray bursts (GRBs) that occur in the Universe.

Fair Weather Neutron Bursts From Photonuclear Reactions by Extensive Air Shower Core Interactions in the Ground and Implications for Terrestrial Gamma‐ray Flash Signatures

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
We report on anomalously long duration (2 ms) count rate bursts following the impact of cosmic ray showers near a 7.62 cm x⊘7.62 cm LaBr3 scintillation detector at the High Altitude Water Cherenkov array in Mexico, previously described by Stenkin et al. (

The optical afterglow of the short gamma-ray burst associated with GW170817 [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2018
The binary neutron star merger GW170817 was the first multi-messenger event observed in both gravitational and electromagnetic waves1,2. The electromagnetic signal began approximately two seconds post-merger with a weak, short burst of gamma rays3, which

Size of shell universe in light of Fermi GBM transient associated with GW150914

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
The possible burst occurred in location and temporal consistence with gravitational wave event GW150914, as reported by Fermi GBM, offers a new way of constraining models with extra dimensions.
