An origin for short g-ray bursts unassociated with current star formation
S. D. Barthelmy, G. Chincarini, D. N. Burrows +28
Two short (<2 s) g-ray bursts (GRBs) have recently been localized and fading afterglow counterparts detected. The combination of these two results left unclear the nature of the ho…
Swift-UVOT detection of GRB 050318
M. Still, P. W. A. Roming, K. O. Mason +27
We present observations of GRB 050318 by the Ultra-Violet and Optical Telescope (UVOT) on-board the Swift observatory. The data are the first detections of a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB)…
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…
Evidence for a Canonical GRB Afterglow Light Curve in the Swift/XRT Data
J. A. Nousek, C. Kouveliotou, D. Grupe +25
We present new observations of the early X-ray afterglows of the first 27 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected with the Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT). The early X-ray afterglows show a c…
Swift panchromatic observations of the bright gamma-ray burst GRB050525a
A. J. Blustin, D. Band, S. Barthelmy +12
The bright gamma-ray burst GRB050525a has been detected with the Swift observatory, providing unique multiwavelength coverage from the very earliest phases of the burst. The X-ray…
Swift, INTEGRAL, RXTE, and Spitzer reveal IGR J16283-4838
V. Beckmann, J. A. Kennea, C. Markwardt +9
We present the first combined study of the recently discovered source IGR J16283-4838 with Swift, INTEGRAL, and RXTE. The source, discovered by INTEGRAL on April 7, 2005, shows a h…
