Pulse properties of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
Suzanne Foley, Gerard Fitzpatrick, Michael S. Briggs +17
The Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has triggered on over 300 terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) since its launch in June 2008. With 14…
Compton scattering in terrestrial gamma-ray flashes detected with the Fermi gamma-ray burst monitor
Gerard Fitzpatrick, Eric Cramer, Sheila McBreen +11
Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are short intense flashes of gamma rays associated with lightning activity in thunderstorms. Using Monte Carlo simulations of the relativistic…
Detection of spectral evolution in the bursts emitted during the 2008-2009 active episode of SGR J1550 - 5418
Andreas von Kienlin, David Gruber, Chryssa Kouveliotou +16
In early October 2008, the Soft Gamma Repeater SGRJ1550 - 5418 (1E 1547.0 - 5408, AXJ155052 - 5418, PSR J1550 - 5418) became active, emitting a series of bursts which triggered the…
Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of the 3 Brightest and Hardest Short Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed with the FGST Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
Sylvain Guiriec, Michael S. Briggs, Valerie Connaugthon +25
From July 2008 to October 2009, the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST) has detected 320 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). About 20% of these e…
