Gamma-ray burst detection with the AGILE mini-calorimeter
M. Marisaldi, C. Labanti, F. Fuschino +70
The Mini-Calorimeter (MCAL) instrument on-board the AGILE satellite is a non-imaging gamma-ray scintillation detector sensitive in the 300keV-100MeV energy range with a total on-ax…
Delayed X-ray emission from fallback in compact-object mergers
Elena M. Rossi, Mitchell C. Begelman
When double neutron star or neutron star-black hole binaries merge, the final remnant may comprise a central solar-mass black hole surrounded by a 0.01-0.1 solar masses torus. The…
Microphysical dissipation, turbulence and magnetic fields in hyper-accreting discs
Elena M. Rossi, Philip J. Armitage, Kristen Menou
Hyper-accreting discs occur in compact-object mergers and collapsars, and may power gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We calculate the microscopic viscosity and resistivity of plasma in the…
