GRBAlpha: the smallest astrophysical space observatory -- Part 1: Detector design, system description and satellite operations

András Pál, Masanori Ohno, László Mészáros +42

Aims. Since launched on 2021 March 22, the 1U-sized CubeSat GRBAlpha operates and collects scientific data on high-energy transients, making it the smallest astrophysical space obs…

The peak-flux of GRB 221009A measured with GRBAlpha

Jakub Ripa, Hiromitsu Takahashi, Yasushi Fukazawa +42

The brightest gamma-ray burst ever observed, long-duration GRB 221009A, was detected by GRBAlpha nano-satellite without saturation. We present light curves of the prompt emission i…

High energy emission component, population, and contribution to the extragalactic gamma-ray background of gamma-ray emitting radio galaxies

Yasushi Fukazawa, Hiroto Matake, Taishu Kayanoki +2

In this study, we systematically studied the X-ray to GeV gamma-ray spectra of 61 {\it Fermi} Large Area Telescope (LAT) detected radio galaxies. We found an anticorrelation betwee…

Catalog of Long-Term Transient Sources in the First 10 Years of Fermi-LAT Data

L. Baldini, J. Ballet, D. Bastieri +112

We present the first Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) catalog of long-term -ray transient sources (1FLT). This comprises sources that were detected on monthly time intervals dur…

The simulation framework of the timing-based localization for future all-sky gamma-ray observations with a fleet of Cubesats

Masanori Ohno, Norbert Werner, Andras Pal +22

The timing-based localization, which utilize the triangulation principle with the different arrival time of gamma-ray photons, with a fleet of Cubesats is a unique and powerful sol…
