A Proliferated Space Architecture for Time-Domain Astrophysics
Daniel Kocevski, Eric Burns, Thomas Barclay +58
Time-Domain and Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (TDAMM) is entering a discovery-rich but follow-up-limited era, creating an urgent need for responsive, multiwavelength space-based cap…
17 Yr of Magnetar Bursts Observed with the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor
Matt Godwin, Özge Keskin, Mustafa Demirer +17
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has been in operation for over 17 years, during which it has observed more than a thousand bursts from soft gamma repeaters (SGRs), also kno…
From Rare Events to a Population: Discovering Overlooked Extragalactic Magnetar Giant Flare Candidates in Archival Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Data
Aaron C. Trigg, Eric Burns, Michela Negro +16
Magnetar giant flares (MGFs) are rare, extremely bright bursts of gamma-rays from highly magnetized neutron stars. These events are challenging to identify because, at extragalacti…
GRB 250702B: Discovery of a Gamma-Ray Burst from a Black Hole Falling into a Star
Eliza Neights, Eric Burns, Chris L. Fryer +52
Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous electromagnetic events in the universe. Their prompt gamma-ray emission has typical durations between a fraction of a second and several minu…
Fermi-GBM Observations of GRB 230307A: An Exceptionally Bright Long-Duration Gamma-ray Burst with an Associated Kilonova
S. Dalessi, P. Veres, C. M. Hui +22
On March 7th, 2023 the \textit{Fermi} Gamma-ray Burst Monitor observed the second highest fluence gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever, GRB~230307A. With a duration beyond 100~s, GRB~230307A…
Fermi-GBM Team Analysis on The Ravasio Line
Eric Burns, Stephen Lesage, Adam Goldstein +20
The prompt spectra of gamma-ray bursts are known to follow broadband continuum behavior over decades in energy. GRB 221009A, given the moniker the brightest of all time (BOAT), is…
GRB 221009A: the B.O.A.T Burst that Shines in Gamma Rays
M. Axelsson, M. Ajello, M. Arimoto +151
We present a complete analysis of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data of GRB 221009A, the brightest Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) ever detected. The burst emission above 30 MeV detected…
Constraining possible -ray burst emission from GW230529 using Swift-BAT and Fermi-GBM
Samuele Ronchini, Suman Bala, Joshua Wood +35
GW230529 is the first compact binary coalescence detected by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration with at least one component mass confidently in the lower mass-gap, corresponding to…
A Joint Fermi-GBM and Swift-BAT Analysis of Gravitational-Wave Candidates from the Third Gravitational-wave Observing Run
C. Fletcher, J. Wood, R. Hamburg +1696
We present Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM) and Swift Burst Alert Telescope (Swift-BAT) searches for gamma-ray/X-ray counterparts to gravitational wave (GW) candidate even…
Extreme Variability in a Long Duration Gamma-ray Burst Associated with a Kilonova
P. Veres, P. N. Bhat, E. Burns +19
The recent discovery of a kilonova from the long duration gamma-ray burst, GRB 211211A, challenges classification schemes based on temporal information alone. Gamma-ray properties…
Fermi-GBM Discovery of GRB 221009A: An Extraordinarily Bright GRB from Onset to Afterglow
S. Lesage, P. Veres, M. S. Briggs +136
We report the discovery of GRB 221009A, the highest flux gamma-ray burst ever observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). This GRB has continuous prompt emission lasting m…
GRB 221009A, The BOAT
Eric Burns, Dmitry Svinkin, Edward Fenimore +23
GRB 221009A has been referred to as the Brightest Of All Time (the BOAT). We investigate the veracity of this statement by comparing it with a half century of prompt gamma-ray burs…
The Future of Gamma-Ray Experiments in the MeV-EeV Range
Kristi Engel, Jordan Goodman, Petra Huentemeyer +95
Gamma-rays, the most energetic photons, carry information from the far reaches of extragalactic space with minimal interaction or loss of information. They bring messages about par…
Cosmological Fast Optical Transients with the Zwicky Transient Facility: A Search for Dirty Fireballs
Anna Y. Q. Ho, Daniel A. Perley, Yuhan Yao +33
Dirty fireballs are a hypothesized class of relativistic massive-star explosions with an initial Lorentz factor below the required to pro…
Measuring an off-Center Detonation through Infrared Line Profiles: The peculiar Type Ia Supernova SN~2020qxp/ASASSN-20jq
P. Hoeflich, C. Ashall, S. Bose +17
We present and analyze a near infrared(NIR) spectrum of the under-luminous Type Ia supernova SN~2020qxp/ASASSN-20jq obtained with NIRES at the Keck Observatory 191 days after B-ban…
