A Giant Flare from a Soft Gamma Repeater in the Andromeda Galaxy, M31
E. P. Mazets, R. L. Aptekar, T. L. Cline +6
The light curve, energy spectra, energetics, and IPN localization of an exceedingly intense short duration hard spectrum burst, GRB 070201, obtained from Konus-Wind, INTEGRAL (SPI-…
An Intriguing Solar Microflare Observed with RHESSI, Hinode and TRACE
I. G. Hannah, S. Krucker, H. S. Hudson +2
Investigate particle acceleration and heating in a solar microflare. In a microflare with non-thermal emission to remarkably high energies ( keV), we investigate the hard X-ra…
The Afterglows of Swift-era Gamma-Ray Bursts. I. Comparing pre-Swift and Swift era Long/Soft (Type II) GRB Optical Afterglows
D. A. Kann, S. Klose, B. Zhang +73
We have gathered optical photometry data from the literature on a large sample of Swift-era gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows including GRBs up to September 2009, for a total of 76…
The UV-optical Galaxy Color-Magnitude Diagram I: Basic Properties
Ted K. Wyder, D. Christopher Martin, David Schiminovich +19
We have analyzed the bivariate distribution of galaxies as a function of ultraviolet-optical colors and absolute magnitudes in the local universe. The sample consists of galaxies w…
The Search for Muon Neutrinos from Northern Hemisphere Gamma-Ray Bursts with AMANDA
The IceCube Collaboration, A. Achterberg, the IPN Collaboration +2
We present the results of the analysis of neutrino observations by the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array (AMANDA) correlated with photon observations of more than 400 gamm…
SPI observations of the diffuse 60Fe emission in the Galaxy
W. Wang, M. J. Harris, R. Diehl +12
Gamma-ray line emission from radioactive decay of 60Fe provides constraints on nucleosynthesis in massive stars and supernovae. The spectrometer SPI on board INTEGRAL has accumulat…
The Orientation of the Reconnection X-line
M. Swisdak, J. F. Drake
We propose a criterion for identifying the orientation of the X-line when two regions of plasma with arbitrary densities, temperatures, and magnetic fields undergo reconnection. Th…
The Detection of Far Ultraviolet Line Emission from Balmer-Dominated Supernova Remnants in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Parviz Ghavamian, William P. Blair, Ravi Sankrit +2
We present the first far ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of the four known Balmer-dominated supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, acquired with the Far Ultraviolet Spe…
Spitzer Space Telescope Observations of Kepler's Supernova Remnant: A Detailed Look at the Circumstellar Dust Component
William P. Blair, Parviz Ghavamian, Knox S. Long +4
We present 3.6 - 160 micron infrared images of Kepler's supernova remnant (SN1604) obtained with the IRAC and MIPS instruments on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We also present MIPS…
Uncovering the Nature of the X-ray Transient 4U 1730-22: Discovery of X-ray Emission from a Neutron Star in Quiescence with Chandra
John A. Tomsick, Dawn M. Gelino, Philip Kaaret
The X-ray transient, 4U 1730-22, has not been detected in outburst since 1972, when a single outburst was detected by the Uhuru satellite. This neutron star or black hole X-ray bin…
The Ultraviolet-Optical Color-Magnitude Diagram III: Constraints on Evolution from the Blue to Red Sequence
D. Christopher Martin, Ted K. Wyder, David Schiminovich +17
We introduce a new quantity, the mass flux density of galaxies evolving from the blue sequence to the red sequence. We propose a simple technique for constraining this mass flux us…
HETE-2 Observations of the X-Ray Flash XRF 040916
Makoto Arimoto, Nobuyuki Kawai, Atsumasa Yoshida +43
A long X-ray flash was detected and localized by the instruments aboard the High Energy Transient Explorer II (HETE-2) at 00:03:30 UT on 2004 September 16. The position was reporte…
The Troublesome Broadband Evolution of GRB 061126: Does a Grey Burst Imply Grey Dust?
D. A. Perley, J. S. Bloom, N. R. Butler +18
We report on observations of a gamma-ray burst (GRB 061126) with an extremely bright (R ~ 12 mag at peak) early-time optical afterglow. The optical afterglow is already fading as a…
Deep GALEX Imaging of the HST/COSMOS Field: A First Look at the Morphology of z~0.7 Star-forming Galaxies
M. A. Zamojski, D. Schiminovich, R. M. Rich +34
We present a study of the morphological nature of redshift z~0.7 star-forming galaxies using a combination of HST/ACS, GALEX and ground-based images of the COSMOS field. Our sample…
The pre-shock gas of SN1006 from HST/ACS observations
J. C. Raymond, K. E. Korreck, Q. C. Sedlacek +3
We derive the pre-shock density and scale length along the line of sight for the collisionless shock from a deep HST image that resolves the H alpha filament in SN1006 and updated…
A Comprehensive Study of Short Bursts from SGR 1806-20 and SGR 1900+14 Detected by HETE-2
Yujin E. Nakagawa, Atsumasa Yoshida, Kevin Hurley +20
We present the results of temporal and spectral studies of the short burst (less than a few hundred milliseconds) from the soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) 1806-20 and 1900+14 using the…
