A Re-brightening of the Radio Nebula associated with the 2004 December 27 giant flare from SGR 1806--20
J. D. Gelfand, Y. E. Lyubarsky, D. Eichler +7
The 2004 Dec. 27 giant Gamma-ray flare detected from the magnetar SGR 1806-20 created an expanding radio nebula which we have monitored with the Australia Telescope Compact Array a…
Diagnosing the outflow from the SGR 1806-20 Giant Flare with Radio Observations
J. Granot, E. Ramirez-Ruiz, G. B. Taylor +6
On 2004 Dec. 27, the soft gamma repeater (SGR) 1806-20 emitted the brightest giant flare (GF) ever detected from an SGR, with an (isotropic) energy release times greater…
An expanding radio nebula produced by a giant flare from the magnetar SGR 1806-20
B. M. Gaensler, C. Kouveliotou, J. D. Gelfand +16
Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) are "magnetars", a small class of slowly spinning neutron stars with extreme surface magnetic fields, ~10^15 gauss. On 2004 December 27, a giant flare w…
Magnetars in the afterglow era
D. Eichler, Y. Lyubarsky, C. Thompson +1
The X-ray afterglow that is observed following large flares on magnetars can be accurately fit by simple and quantitative theoretical models: The long term afterglow, lasting of or…
Hydrodymanic collimation of GRB fireballs
A. Levinson, D. Eichler
Analytic solutions are presented for the hydrodynamic collimation of a relativistic fireball by a surrounding baryonic wind emanating from a torus. The opening angle is shown to be…
