Early emission of rising optical afterglows: The case of GRB 060904B and GRB 070420
A. Klotz, B. Gendre, G. Stratta +8
We present the time-resolved optical emission of gamma-ray bursts GRB 060904B and GRB 070420 during their prompt and early afterglow phases. We used time resolved photometry from o…
Monitoring the hard X-ray sky with SuperAGILE
M. Feroci, E. Costa, E. Del Monte +77
SuperAGILE is the hard X-ray monitor of the AGILE gamma ray mission, in orbit since 23 April 2007. It is an imaging experiment based on a set of four independent silicon str…
High-Resolution Timing Observations of Spin-Powered Pulsars with the AGILE Gamma-Ray Telescope
A. Pellizzoni, M. Pilia, A. Possenti +67
AGILE is a small gamma-ray astronomy satellite mission of the Italian Space Agency dedicated to high-energy astrophysics launched in 2007 April. Its 1 microsecond absolute time tag…
First AGILE Catalog of High Confidence Gamma-Ray Sources
C. Pittori, F. Verrecchia, A. W. Chen +80
We present the first catalog of high-confidence gamma-ray sources detected by the AGILE satellite during observations performed from July 9, 2007 to June 30, 2008. Catalogued sourc…
GRB 070724B: the first Gamma Ray Burst localized by SuperAGILE and its Swift X-ray Afterglow
E. Del Monte, M. Feroci, L. Pacciani +51
GRB 070724B is the first Gamma Ray Burst localized by SuperAGILE, the hard X-ray monitor aboard the AGILE satellite. The coordinates of the event were published hours aft…
Gamma-ray burst detection with the AGILE mini-calorimeter
M. Marisaldi, C. Labanti, F. Fuschino +70
The Mini-Calorimeter (MCAL) instrument on-board the AGILE satellite is a non-imaging gamma-ray scintillation detector sensitive in the 300keV-100MeV energy range with a total on-ax…
