Localization of Gamma-Ray Bursts using the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
V. Connaughton, M. S. Briggs, A. Goldstein +25
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has detected over 1400 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) since it began science operations in July, 2008. We use a subset of over 300 GRBs localized b…
Swift and Fermi observations of X-ray flares: the case of Late Internal Shock
E. Troja, L. Piro, V. Vasileiou +5
Simultaneous Swift and Fermi observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) offer a unique broadband view of their afterglow emission, spanning more than ten decades in energy. We present…
Synchrotron Cooling in Energetic Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
Hoi-Fung Yu, Jochen Greiner, Hendrik van Eerten +15
We study the time-resolved spectra of eight GRBs observed by Fermi GBM in its first five years of mission, with 1 keV - 1 MeV fluence erg cm and signal-…
High-energy electromagnetic offline follow-up of LIGO-Virgo gravitational-wave binary coalescence candidate events
Lindy Blackburn, Michael S. Briggs, Jordan Camp +5
We present two different search methods for electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational-wave (GW) events from ground-based detectors using archival NASA high-energy data from the…
An Observed Correlation Between Thermal and Non-Thermal Emission in Gamma-Ray Bursts
J. Michael Burgess, Robert D. Preece, Felix Ryde +22
Recent observations by the Gamma-ray Space Telescope have confirmed the existence of thermal and non-thermal components in the prompt photon spectra of some Gamma-ray burst…
Cherenkov Telescope Array is Well Suited to Follow Up Gravitational Wave Transients
Imre Bartos, Peter Veres, Daniel Nieto +8
The first gravitational-wave (GW) observations will greatly benefit from the detection of coincident electromagnetic counterparts. Electromagnetic follow-ups will nevertheless be c…
