Exploring the MeV Sky with a Combined Coded Mask and Compton Telescope: The Galactic Explorer with a Coded Aperture Mask Compton Telescope (GECCO)

Elena Orlando, Eugenio Bottacini, Alexander Moiseev +33

The sky at MeV energies is currently poorly explored. Here we present an innovative mission concept that builds on and improves past and currently proposed missions at such energie…

Orbital decay in M82 X-2

Matteo Bachetti, Marianne Heida, Thomas Maccarone +21

M82 X-2 is the first pulsating ultraluminous X-ray source (PULX) discovered. The luminosity of these extreme pulsars, if isotropic, implies an extreme mass transfer rate. An altern…

Unveiling the Fermi Bubbles origin with MeV photon telescopes

Michela Negro, Henrike Fleischhack, Andreas Zoglauer +2

The Fermi Bubbles (FB) are a pair of large-scale ellipsoidal structures extending above and below the Galactic plane almost symmetrically aligned with the Galactic Center. After mo…

Spectral and Timing Analysis of NuSTAR and Swift/XRT Observations of the X-Ray Transient MAXI J0637-430

Hadar Lazar, John A. Tomsick, Sean N. Pike +10

We present results for the first observed outburst from the transient X-ray binary source MAXI J0637-430. This study is based on eight observations from the Nuclear Spectroscopic T…

Study of in the COSI 2016 superpressure balloon flight

Jacqueline Beechert

The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a balloon-borne compact Compton telescope designed to survey the -ray sky from 0.2 to 5 MeV. COSI's wide field-of-view (FOV) and ex…

The X-ray binary population in the Galactic Center revealed through multi-decade observations

Kaya Mori, Charles J. Hailey, Theo Y. E. Schutt +6

We present an investigation of the quiescent and transient X-ray binaries (XRBs) of the Galactic Center (GC). We extended our Chandra analysis of the non-thermal X-ray sources, loc…

Discovery and confirmation of the shortest gamma ray burst from a collapsar

Tomas Ahumada, Leo P. Singer, Shreya Anand +54

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are among the brightest and most energetic events in the universe. The duration and hardness distribution of GRBs has two clusters, now understood to reflec…

Chandra, NuSTAR, and Optical Observations of the Cataclysmic Variables IGR J17528-2022 and IGR J20063+3641

Jeremy Hare, Jules P. Halpern, John A. Tomsick +5

We report on Chandra, NuSTAR, and MDM observations of two INTEGRAL sources, namely IGR J17528-2022 and IGR J20063+3641. IGR J17528-2022 is an unidentified INTEGRAL source, while IG…

Using Chandra Localizations and Gaia Distances and Proper Motions to Classify Hard X-ray Sources Discovered by INTEGRAL

John A. Tomsick, Benjamin M. Coughenour, Jeremy Hare +7

Here we report on X-ray observations of ten 17-60 keV sources discovered by the INTEGRAL satellite. The primary new information is sub-arcsecond positions obtained by the Chandra X…
