Evidence that gamma-ray burst sources repeat [PDF]

open access: greenMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1994
We investigate clustering in the angular distribution of the 260 $ $-ray bursts in the publicly available BATSE catalogue, using a nearest neighbour analysis and the measures of burst brightness $B$ and short time scale variability $V$ which we introduced earlier. We find that while all 260 bursts are only modestly clustered (Q-value = $1.8 \times 10^{

The First LHAASO Catalog of Gamma-Ray Sources

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present the first catalog of very-high-energy and ultra-high-energy gamma-ray sources detected by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory. The catalog was compiled using 508 days of data collected by the Water Cherenkov Detector Array from 2021

On the Properties of Inverse Compton Spectra Generated by Upscattering a Power-law Distribution of Target Photons

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Relativistic electrons are an essential component in many astrophysical sources, and their radiation may dominate the high-energy bands. Inverse Compton (IC) emission is the radiation mechanism that plays the most important role in these bands. The basic

Limits on Leptonic TeV Emission from the Cygnus Cocoon with Swift-XRT

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
γ -ray observations of the Cygnus Cocoon, an extended source surrounding the Cygnus X star-forming region, suggest the presence of a cosmic-ray accelerator reaching energies up to a few PeV.

Massive protostars as gamma-ray sources [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2010
Massive protostars have associated bipolar outflows with velocities of hundreds of km s$^{-1}$. Such outflows can produce strong shocks when interact with the ambient medium leading to regions of non-thermal radio emission. We aim at exploring under which conditions relativistic particles are accelerated at the terminal shocks of the protostellar jets ...

Evidence for Two Distinct Populations of Kilonova-associated Gamma-Ray Bursts

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Identification of gamma-ray burst (GRB) progenitors based on the duration of their prompt emission ( T _90 ) has faced several roadblocks recently. Long-duration GRBs (with T _90 > 2 s) have traditionally been thought to be originating from the collapse ...

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.

GeV gamma-ray sources [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2000
We report on the preliminary extension of our work on cataloging the GeV sky to approximately 7 years of CGRO/EGRET observations with special emphasis on a search for transient sources. The search method and significance levels are presented. Our initial results on 13 possible transients indicate that 3 may be new gamma-ray sources.

Advanced γ-Ray Emission Studies of G15.4+0.1 with Fermi-LAT: Evidence of Escaping Cosmic Rays Interacting with Surrounding Molecular Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an analysis of γ -ray emission in the direction of supernova remnant (SNR) G15.4+0.1 with 13 yr Fermi Large Area Telescope data. There are three point-like GeV sources in this region: one is spatially coincident with the TeV source HESS J1818 ...
