Swift Pointing and the Association Between Gamma-Ray Bursts and Gravitational-Wave Bursts

open access: yes, 2003
The currently accepted model for gamma-ray burst phenomena involves the violent formation of a rapidly rotating solar mass black hole. Gravitational waves should be associated with the black-hole formation, and their detection would permit this model to ...

GRB Spectral Hardness and Afterglow Properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
A possible relationship between the presence of a radio afterglow and gamma-ray burst spectral hardness is discussed. The correlation is marginally significant; the spectral hardness of the bursts with radio afterglows apparently results from a ...

Estimating the peak energy of Swift gamma-ray bursts using supervised machine learning

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are among the most energetic explosive phenomena in the Universe, and their peak energy (Ep) is a key physical quantity for understanding the prompt emission mechanism.

The 1st INTEGRAL SPI-ACS Gamma-Ray Burst Catalogue

open access: yes, 2005
We present the sample of gamma-ray bursts detected with the anti-coincidence shield ACS of the spectrometer SPI on-board INTEGRAL for the first 26.5 months of mission operation (up to Jan 2005).

Analysis of the Swift Gamma-Ray Bursts duration

open access: yes, 2008
Two classes of gamma-ray bursts have been identified in the BATSE catalogs characterized by durations shorter and longer than about 2 seconds. There are, however, some indications for the existence of a third type of burst. Swift satellite detectors have

On the possible gamma-ray burst -- gravitational wave association in GW150914

open access: yes, 2016
Data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor satellite observatory suggested that the recently discovered gravitational wave source, a pair of two coalescing black holes, was related to a gamma-ray burst. The observed high-energy electromagnetic radiation

Stereoscopic observations of hard x ray sources in solar flares made with GRO and other spacecraft [PDF]

open access: yes
Since the launch of the Gamma Ray Observatory (GRO) in Apr. 1991, the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) instrument on GRO has recorded a large number of solar flares.
