PSR J0737-3039: Interacting Pulsars in X-Rays
A. Pellizzoni, A. Tiengo, A. De Luca +2
We present the results of a ~230 ks long X-ray observation of the relativistic double-pulsar system PSR J0737-3039 obtained with the XMM-Newton satellite in 2006 October. We confir…
Dust-scattered X-ray halos around two Swift gamma-ray bursts: GRB 061019 and GRB 070129
G. Vianello, A. Tiengo, S. Mereghetti
Two new expanding X-ray rings were detected by the Swift XRT instrument during early follow-up observations of GRB 061019 and GRB 070129, increasing to 5 the number of dust scatter…
Magnetars' Giant Flares: the case of SGR 1806-20
Nanda Rea
We first review on the peculiar characteristics of the bursting and flaring activity of the Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars. We then report on the properties o…
The Integral Burst Alert System (IBAS)
S. Mereghetti, D. Gotz, J. Borkowski +2
We describe the INTEGRAL Burst Alert System (IBAS): the automatic software for the rapid distribution of the coordinates of the Gamma-Ray Bursts detected by INTEGRAL. IBAS is imple…
The X-ray afterglow of GRB030329
A. Tiengo, S. Mereghetti, G. Ghisellini +3
We report on XMM-Newton and Rossi-XTE observations of the bright (fluence 10 erg cm) and nearby (z=0.1685) Gamma-Ray Burst GRB030329 associated to SN2003dh. Th…
Unveiling the nature of the 321s Orbital Period X-ray source RX J0806.3+1527
GianLuca Israel, Luigi Stella, Stefano Covino +5
A nearly simultaneous X-ray/optical (Chandra and VLT) observational campaign of RX J0806.3+1527 has been carried out during November 2001. These observations allowed us to phase th…
