Fermi Detection of γ-ray emission from the M2 Soft X-ray Flare on 2010 June 12
Fermi GBM Collaboration, Fermi LAT Collaboration, B. R. Dennis +2
The GOES M2-class solar flare, SOL2010-06-12T00:57, was modest in many respects yet exhibited remarkable acceleration of energetic particles. The flare produced an ~50 s impulsive…
Polarimetry of the transient relativistic jet of GRB 110328 / Swift J164449.3+573451
K. Wiersema, A. J. van der Horst, A. J. Levan +9
We present deep infrared (Ks band) imaging polarimetry and radio (1.4 and 4.8 GHz) polarimetry of the enigmatic transient Swift J164449.3+573451. This source appears to be a short…
The faint "heartbeats" of IGR J17091-3624: an exceptional black-hole candidate
D. Altamirano, T. Belloni, M. Linares +9
We report on the first 180 days of RXTE observations of the outburst of the black hole candidate IGR J17091-3624. This source exhibits a broad variety of complex light curve patter…
Orbital Decay and Evidence of Disk Formation in the X-ray Binary Pulsar OAO 1657-415
P. A. Jenke, M. H. Finger, C. A. Wilson-Hodge +1
OAO 1657-415 is an eclipsing X-ray binary wind-fed pulsar that has exhibited smooth spin-up/spin-down episodes and has undergone several torque reversals throughout its long histor…
GRB 081029: A Gamma-Ray Burst with a Multi-Component Afterglow
Stephen T. Holland, Massimiliano De Pasquale, Jirong Mao +12
We present an analysis of the unusual optical light curve of the gamma-ray burst GRB 081029, a long-soft burst with a redshift of z = 3.8479. We combine X-ray and optical observati…
A Suzaku View of Cyclotron Line Sources and Candidates
K. Pottschmidt, S. Suchy, E. Rivers +20
Seventeen accreting neutron star pulsars, mostly high mass X-ray binaries with half of them Be-type transients, are known to exhibit Cyclotron Resonance Scattering Features (CRSFs)…
