Daksha: On Alert for High Energy Transients
Varun Bhalerao, Santosh Vadawale, Shriharsh Tendulkar +45
We present Daksha, a proposed high energy transients mission for the study of electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave sources, and gamma ray bursts. Daksha will comprise…
Science with the Daksha High Energy Transients Mission
Varun Bhalerao, Disha Sawant, Archana Pai +72
We present the science case for the proposed Daksha high energy transients mission. Daksha will comprise of two satellites covering the entire sky from 1~keV to ~MeV. The prima…
GROWTH on S190426c II: GROWTH-India Telescope search for an optical counterpart with a custom image reduction and candidate vetting pipeline
Harsh Kumar, Varun Bhalerao, G. C. Anupama +17
S190426c / GW190426_152155 was the first probable neutron star - black hole merger candidate detected by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration. We undertook a tiled search for optical count…
Hard X-ray polarization catalog for a 5-year sample of Gamma-Ray Bursts using AstroSat CZT-Imager
Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Soumya Gupta, Shabnam Iyyani +16
Cadmium Zinc Telluride Imager (CZTI) aboard AstroSat has been regularly detecting Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) since its launch in 2015. Its sensitivity to polarization measurements at…
The long-active afterglow of GRB 210204A: Detection of the most delayed flares in a Gamma-Ray Burst
Harsh Kumar, Rahul Gupta, Divita Saraogi +22
We present results from extensive broadband follow-up of GRB 210204A over the period of thirty days. We detect optical flares in the afterglow at 7.6 x 10^5 s and 1.1 x 10^6 s afte…
Probing into emission mechanisms of GRB 190530A using time-resolved spectra and polarization studies: Synchrotron Origin?
Rahul Gupta, S. Gupta, T. Chattopadhyay +47
Multi-pulsed GRB 190530A, detected by the GBM and LAT onboard \fermi, is the sixth most fluent GBM burst detected so far. This paper presents the timing, spectral, and polarimetric…
