High energy emission components in the short GRB 090510
Alessandra Corsi, Dafne Guetta, Luigi Piro
We investigate the origin of the prompt and delayed emission observed in the short GRB 090510. We use the broad-band data to test whether the most popular theoretical models for ga…
An Upper Limit on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background of Cosmological Origin
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of a large number of unresolved gravitational-wave sources of astrophysical and cosmologica…
The INTEGRAL view of Gamma-Ray Bursts
P. Ubertini, A. Corsi, S. Foley +3
After more than six and half years in orbit, the ESA space observatory INTEGRAL has provided new, exciting results in the soft gamma-ray energy range (from a few keV to a few MeV).…
GRB afterglow plateaus and Gravitational Waves: multi-messenger signature of a millisecond magnetar?
Alessandra Corsi, Peter Meszaros
The existence of a shallow decay phase in the early X-ray afterglows of gamma-ray bursts is a common feature. Here we investigate the possibility that this is connected to the form…
GeV emission from short Gamma-Ray Bursts: the case of GRB 081024B
Alessandra Corsi, Dafne Guetta, Luigi Piro
We investigate whether the high energy tail detected by the Fermi/LAT for the short GRB 081024B can be caused by synchrotron and self-Compton emission in the context of either the…
Studying the WHIM with Gamma Ray Bursts
E. Branchini, E. Ursino, A. Corsi +14
We assess the possibility to detect and characterize the physical state of the missing baryons at low redshift by analyzing the X-ray absorption spectra of the Gamma Ray Burst [GRB…
