The afterglow, the redshift, and the extreme energetics of the gamma-ray burst 990123
S. R. Kulkarni, S. G. Djorgovski, S. C. Odewahn +26
Afterglow, or long-lived emission, has now been detected from about a dozen well-positioned gamma-ray bursts. Distance determinations made by measuring optical emission lines from…
X-ray Emission from the Guitar Nebula
Roger W. Romani, James M. Cordes, I. -A. Yadigaroglu
We have detected weak soft X-ray emission from the Pulsar Wind Nebula trailing the high velocity star PSR 2224+65 (the `Guitar Nebula'). This X-ray flux gives evidence of γ~10^7 eV…
Sensitivity of Gamma-Ray Detectors to Polarization
I. -A. Yadigaroglu
Previous studies have shown that the largest gamma-ray detector to date, EGRET, does not have useful polarization sensitivity. We have explored here some improved approaches to ana…
Gamma-Ray Pulsars and Massive Stars in the Solar Neighborhood
I. -A. Yadigaroglu, Roger W. Romani
We revisit the association of unidentified Galactic plane EGRET sources with tracers of recent massive star formation and death. Up-to-date catalogs of OB associations, SNRs, young…
-Ray Pulsars: Emission Zones and Viewing Geometries, A Computer Animation
I. -A. Yadigaroglu, Roger W. Romani
The computer animation illustrates the geometries described in a paper by the same authors. The preprint is available as number 9401045. The opening scene shows dipole field lines…
