The Interplanetary Network Supplement to the BATSE 5B Catalog of Cosmic Gamma-Ray Bursts
K. Hurley, M. S. Briggs, R. M. Kippen +10
We present Interplanetary Network (IPN) localization information for 343 gamma-ray bursts observed by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) between the end of the 4th B…
The Interplanetary Network Supplement to the BATSE Catalogs of Untriggered Cosmic Gamma Ray Bursts
K. Hurley, B. Stern, J. Kommers +16
We present Interplanetary Network (IPN) detection and localization information for 211 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed as untriggered events by the Burst and Transient Source Expe…
Chandra and RXTE Spectroscopy of the Galactic Microquasar XTE J1550-564 in Outburst
J. M. Miller, H. L. Marshall, R. Wijnands +10
On two occasions, we obtained nearly simultaneous ~ 4 kilosecond snapshot observations of the Galactic black hole and microquasar XTE J1550-564 with Chandra and RXTE near the peak…
A Non-Triggered Burst Supplement to the BATSE Gamma-Ray Burst Catalogs
J. M. Kommers, W. H. G. Lewin, C. Kouveliotou +4
The Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory detected gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with a real-time burst detection (or "trigger") system runni…
Precise Interplanetary Network Localization of the Bursting Pulsar GRO J1744-28
K. Hurley, C. Kouveliotou, T. Cline +8
We analyze 426 observations of the bursting pulsar GRO J1744-28 by Ulysses and BATSE. Triangulating each burst, and statistically combining the triangulation annuli, we obtain a 3…
On the nature of XTE J0421+560/CI Cam
T. Belloni, S. Dieters, M. E. van den Ancker +7
We present the results of the analysis of RXTE, BATSE and optical/infrared data of the 1998 outburst of the X-ray transient system XTE J0421+560 (CI Cam). The X-ray outburst shows…
The Intensity Distribution of Faint Gamma-ray Bursts Detected with BATSE
J. M. Kommers, W. H. G. Lewin, C. Kouveliotou +4
We have recently completed a search of 6 years of archival BATSE data for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that were too faint to activate the real-time burst detection system running onboa…
On the Association of Gamma-Ray Bursts with Supernovae
R. M. Kippen, M. S. Briggs, J. M. Kommers +7
The recent discovery of a supernova (SN 1998bw) seemingly associated with GRB~980425 adds a new twist to the decades-old debate over the origin of gamma-ray bursts. To investigate…
The Evolution of Rapid Burster Outbursts
R. Guerriero, D. W. Fox, J. Kommers +8
We describe the evolutionary progression of an outburst of the Rapid Burster. Four outbursts have been observed with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer between February 1996 and May 1…
Sidebands Due to Quasi-periodic Oscillations in 4U 1626-67
J. M. Kommers, D. Chakrabarty, W. H. G. Lewin
The low-mass X-ray binary pulsar 4U 1626-67 shows 0.048 Hz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) and red noise variability as well as coherent pulsations at the 0.130 Hz neutron star…
BATSE Sky Exposure
Jon Hakkila, Charles A. Meegan, Geoffrey N. Pendleton +4
Angular sky exposure is presented for a number of published BATSE gamma-ray burst catalogs. A new algorithm was required due to telemetry gaps resulting from onboard tape recorder…
A Search for Non-triggered Gamma Ray Bursts in the BATSE Data Base
J. M. Kommers, W. H. G. Lewin, C. Kouveliotou +4
We describe a search of archival data from the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE). The purpose of the search is to find astronomically interesting transients that did no…
Post-Burst Quasi-Periodic Oscillations from GRO J1744-28 and from the Rapid Burster
J. M. Kommers, D. W. Fox, W. H. G. Lewin +3
The repetitive X-ray bursts from the accretion-powered pulsar GRO J1744-28 show similarities to the type II X-ray bursts from the Rapid Burster. Several authors (notably Lewin et a…
