Methods and results of an automatic analysis of a complete sample of Swift-XRT observations of GRBs
P. A. Evans, A. P. Beardmore, K. L. Page +22
We present a homogeneous X-ray analysis of all 318 Gamma Ray Bursts detected by the X-ray Telescope on the Swift satellite up to 2008 July 23; this represents the largest sample of…
Detection of a huge explosion in the early Universe
G. Cusumano, V. Mangano, G. Chincarini +29
Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) are bright flashes of high energy photons that can last from about 10 milliseconds to 10 minutes. Their origin and nature have puzzled the scientific commun…
The Swift X-ray Telescope
David N. Burrows, J. E. Hill, J. A. Nousek +21
The Swift Gamma-Ray Explorer is designed to make prompt multiwavelength observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and GRB afterglows. The X-ray Telescope (XRT) enables Swift to deter…
Halpha rotation curves: the soft core question
D. Marchesini, E. D'Onghia, G. Chincarini +4
We present high resolution Halpha rotation curves of 4 late-type dwarf galaxies and 2 low surface brightness galaxies (LSB) for which accurate HI rotation curves are available from…
Near-infrared observations of galaxies in Pisces-Perseus: I. H-band surface photometry of 174 spirals
G. Moriondo, C. Baffa, S. Casertano +7
We present near-infrared, H-band (1.65 um), surface photometry of 174 spiral galaxies in the area of the Pisces-Perseus supercluster. The images, acquired with the ARNICA camera mo…
The Space Missions WAXS/WFXT and SWIFT: New Targets for the VLT
Guido Chincarini
At OAB we were, during the year 1998, deeply involved in planning two important space missions for which very large ground based telescopes, VLT in particular, would play a very la…
