Constraining the magnetic field structure in collisionless relativistic shocks with a radio afterglow polarization upper limit in GW170817

Ramandeep Gill, Jonathan Granot

Gamma-ray burst afterglows arise from relativistic collisionless shocks in which the postshock tangled magnetic field is produced by the two-stream and/or Weibel instabil…

Fermi and Swift Observations of GRB 190114C: Tracing the Evolution of High-Energy Emission from Prompt to Afterglow

M. Ajello, M. Arimoto, M. Axelsson +147

We report on the observations of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 190114C by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory. The early-time observations reveal mul…

Discovery and Identification of MAXI J1621-501 as a Type I X-ray Burster with a Super-Orbital Period

Nicholas M. Gorgone, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Hitoshi Negoro +26

MAXI J1621-501 is the first Swift/XRT Deep Galactic Plane Survey transient that was followed up with a multitude of space missions (NuSTAR, Swift, Chandra, NICER, INTEGRAL, and MAX…

Anisotropic electron populations in BL Lac jets: consequences for the observed emission

F. Tavecchio, E. Sobacchi

We investigate the impact on the properties of high-energy emitting BL Lac objects of a population of electrons with an anisotropic momentum distribution. We adopt a simple phenome…

ALMA Detection of a Linearly Polarized Reverse Shock in GRB 190114C

Tanmoy Laskar, Kate D. Alexander, Ramandeep Gill +11

We present ALMA 97.5 GHz total intensity and linear polarization observations of the mm-band afterglow of GRB 190114C spanning 2.2 to 5.2 hours after the burst. We detect linear po…

Numerical Simulations of an Initially Top-Hat Jet and the Afterglow of GW170817/GRB170817A

Ramandeep Gill, Jonathan Granot, Fabio De Colle +1

The afterglow of GRB170817A/GW170817 was very unusual, slowly rising as , peaking at days, and sharply d…
