Improved limits on gamma ray burst repetition

Max Tegmark, Dieter Hartmann, Michael Briggs +2

We tighten previous upper limits on gamma ray burst repetition by analyzing the angular power spectrum of the BATSE 3B catalog of 1122 bursts. At 95% confidence, we find that no mo…

X-ray Timing and Spectral Behavior of the Rapid Burster

Robert Rutledge, Lori Lubin, Walter Lewin +3

We present an X-ray fast-timing and spectral analysis of the type II bursts and the persistent emission (PE) of the Rapid Burster observed with the EXOSAT Medium-Energy Instrument.…

Stochastic Particle Acceleration near Accreting Black Holes

Charles D. Dermer, James A. Miller, Hui Li

We consider the stochastic acceleration of particles which results from resonant interactions with plasma waves in black hole magnetospheres. We calculate acceleration rates and es…

On the masses of neutron stars

M. H. van Kerkwijk, J. van Paradijs, E. J. Zuiderwijk

We analyze the currently available observations of X-ray binaries in a consistent way, to re-determine the masses of the neutron stars in these systems. In particular, our attentio…

Spectroscopy of HD 77581 and the mass of Vela X-1

M. H. van Kerkwijk, J. van Paradijs, E. J. Zuiderwijk +3

We present new high-resolution, high signal-to-noise optical spectra of HD 77581, the optical counterpart of the X-ray source Vela X-1, and determine radial velocities from these s…

BATSE Gamma-Ray Burst Line Search: III. Line Detectability

D. L. Band, L. A. Ford, J. L. Matteson +7

We evaluate the ability of the BATSE spectroscopy detectors to detect the absorption lines observed by Ginga in gamma ray burst spectra. We find that BATSE can detect the 20.6 keV…

Time Dependent Clustering Analysis of the Second BATSE Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog

J. J. Brainerd, C. A. Meegan, Michael S. Briggs +2

A time dependent two-point correlation-function analysis of the BATSE 2B catalog finds no evidence of burst repetition. As part of this analysis, we discuss the effects of sky expo…
