GRB171205A/SN2017iuk: A local low-luminosity gamma-ray burst

V. D'Elia, S. Campana, A. D'Aì +19

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) occurring in the local Universe constitute an interesting sub-class of the GRB family, since their luminosity is on average lower than that of their cosmolo…

NICER Observes the Effects of an X-Ray Burst on the Accretion Environment in Aql X-1

L. Keek, Z. Arzoumanian, P. Bult +18

Accretion disks around neutron stars regularly undergo sudden strong irradiation by Type I X-ray bursts powered by unstable thermonuclear burning on the stellar surface. We investi…
