Phase resolved spectroscopy of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during the 2008 outburst
R. Cornelisse, P. D'Avanzo, T. Munoz-Darias +6
aims: We obtained phase-resolved spectroscopy of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during its outburst in 2008 to find a signature of the donor star, constrai…
XMM-Newton observations of IGR J00291+5934: signs of a thermal spectral component during quiescence
Sergio Campana, Luigi Stella, Gianluca Israel +1
We present X-ray observations of the transient accretion-powered millisecond pulsar IGR J00291+5934 during quiescence. IGR J00291+5934 is the first source among accretion powered m…
Flares in Gamma Ray Bursts (II)
G. Chincarini, R. Margutti, J. Mao +4
We illustrate some of the preliminary results obtained with a new sample of flares and a new analysis. In these proceedings we deal mainly with the analysis related to the flare en…
Flares in Gamma Ray Bursts
G. Chincarini, J. Mao, F. Pasotti +4
The flare activity that is observed in GRBs soon after the prompt emission with the XRT (0.3-10 KeV) instrument on board of the Swift satellite is leading to important clues in rel…
The metamorphosis of Supernova SN2008D/XRF080109: a link between Supernovae and GRBs/Hypernovae
Paolo A. Mazzali, Stefano Valenti, Massimo Della Valle +38
The only supernovae (SNe) to have shown early gamma-ray or X-ray emission thus far are overenergetic, broad-lined Type Ic SNe (Hypernovae - HNe). Recently, SN 2008D shows several n…
The short GRB070707 afterglow and its very faint host galaxy
S. Piranomonte, P. D'Avanzo, S. Covino +18
We present the results from an ESO/VLT campaign aimed at studying the afterglow properties of the short/hard gamma ray burst GRB 070707. Observations were carried out at ten differ…
