MOJAVE: Monitoring of Jets in AGN with VLBA Experiments. V. Multi-epoch VLBA Images

M. L. Lister, H. D. Aller, M. F. Aller +9

We present images from a long term program (MOJAVE: Monitoring of Jets in AGN with VLBA Experiments) to survey the structure and evolution of parsec-scale jet phenomena associated…

Statistical Properties of Gamma-Ray Burst Polarization

Kenji Toma, Takanori Sakamoto, Bing Zhang +6

The emission mechanism and the origin and structure of magnetic fields in gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets are among the most important open questions concerning the nature of the centra…

Modelling the spectral response of the Swift-XRT CCD camera: Experience learnt from in-flight calibration

O. Godet, A. P. Beardmore, A. F. Abbey +11

(Abbreviated) We show that the XRT spectral response calibration was complicated by various energy offsets in photon counting (PC) and windowed timing (WT) modes related to the way…

Epeak estimator for Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope

T. Sakamoto, G. Sato, L. Barbier +13

We report a correlation based on a spectral simulation study of the prompt emission spectra of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT). The correl…

Multiwavelength study of the bright X-ray source population in the interacting galaxies NGC5774/NGC5775

Kajal K. Ghosh, Douglas A. Swartz, Allyn F. Tennant +5

A few nearby interacting galaxies are known that host elevated number of ultraluminous X-ray sources. Here we report the results of a multiwavelength study of the X-ray source popu…

Pair-Starved Pulsar Magnetospheres

Alex G. Muslimov, Alice K. Harding

We propose a simple analytic model for the innermost (within the light cylinder of canonical radius) structure of open-magnetic-field lines of a rotating neutron star (NS) with rel…
