The Signature of Refreshed Shocks in the of Afterglow of GRB030329

Michael J. Moss, Robert Mochkovitch, Frédéric Daigne +2

GRB030329 displays one clear and, possibly, multiple less intense fast-rising () jumps in its optical afterglow light curve. The decay rate of the optical light cu…

A structured jet explains the extreme GRB 221009A

B. O'Connor, E. Troja, G. Ryan +29

Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are powerful cosmic explosions, signaling the death of massive stars. Among them, GRB 221009A is by far the brightest burst ever observed. Due…

GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst

Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara +53

We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ra…

Instrumental Tip-of-the-iceberg Effects on the Prompt Emission of Swift/BAT Gamma-ray Bursts

M. Moss, A. Lien, S. Guiriec +2

The observed durations of prompt gamma-ray emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are often used to infer the progenitors and energetics of the sources. Inaccurate duration measurem…

Evidence of extended emission in GRB 181123B and other high-redshift short GRBs

S. Dichiara, E. Troja, P. Beniamini +7

We study the high-energy properties of GRB 181123B, a short gamma-ray burst (sGRB) at redshift 1.75. We show that, despite its nominal short duration with 2 s, t…

Observations of GX 339-4 in 1996

I. A. Smith, E. P. Liang, D. Lin +9

GX 339-4 is an unusual black hole candidate in that it is a persistent source, being detected by X-ray telescopes most of the time, but it also has nova-like flaring states. In 199…

Multiwavelength Observations of GX 339-4 in 1996. I. Daily Light Curves and X-ray and Gamma-Ray Spectroscopy

I. A. Smith, E. P. Liang, D. Lin +6

As part of our multiwavelength campaign of GX 339-4 observations in 1996 we present our radio, X-ray, and gamma-ray observations made in July, when the source was in a hard state (…
