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 ...

Millisecond Magnetar Birth Connects FRB 121102 to Superluminous Supernovae and Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Subarcsecond localization of the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102 revealed its coincidence with a dwarf host galaxy and a steady (“quiescent”) nonthermal radio source.

ON GAMMA-RAY BURSTS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Eleventh Marcel Grossmann Meeting, 2008
(Shortened) We show by example how the uncoding of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) offers unprecedented possibilities to foster new knowledge in fundamental physics and in astrophysics. After recalling some of the classic work on vacuum polarization in uniform electric fields by Klein, Sauter, Heisenberg, Euler and Schwinger, we summarize some of the efforts ...

Superlong gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy Letters, 2005
Before the BATSE/GRO launch GRBs seem to be a uniform phenomenon with duration up to about 100 seconds. The BATSE has detected many events longer than 100 s and a few longer than 500s. We performed the off-line scan of the 1024 ms continuous BATSE records and revealed several non-triggered episodes of the BATSE GRB triggers which confidently belong to ...

A tera–electron volt afterglow from a narrow jet in an extremely bright gamma-ray burst [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2023
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have a tera–electron volt (TeV) afterglow, but the early onset of this has not been observed. We report observations with the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) of the bright GRB 221009A, which ...

Dark gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2017
Many theories of dark matter (DM) predict that DM particles can be captured by stars via scattering on ordinary matter. They subsequently condense into a DM core close to the center of the star and eventually annihilate. In this work, we trace DM capture and annihilation rates throughout the life of a massive star and show that this evolution ...

Extending the Search for Muon Neutrinos Coincident with Gamma-Ray Bursts in IceCube Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present an all-sky search for muon neutrinos produced during the prompt γ-ray emission of 1172 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with the IceCube Neutrino Observatory.

Revisiting the Spectral Energy Correlations of GRBs with Fermi Data. I. Model-wise Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit a diversity of spectra. Several spectral models (e.g., Band, cutoff power law (CPL), and blackbody) and their hybrid versions (e.g., Band+blackbody) have been widely used to fit the observed GRB spectra.

Unveiling the engines of fast radio bursts, superluminous supernovae, and gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
Young, rapidly spinning magnetars are invoked as central engines behind a diverse set of transient astrophysical phenomena, including gamma-ray bursts (GRB), super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe), fast radio bursts (FRB), and binary neutron star (NS) mergers.

Gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yesReports on Progress in Physics, 2006
Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous explosions in the Universe, and their origin and mechanism are the focus of intense research and debate. More than three decades after their discovery, and after pioneering breakthroughs from space and ground experiments, their study is entering a new phase with the recently launched Swift satellite. The interplay
