Comparing the spectral lag of short and long gamma-ray bursts and its relation with the luminosity
M. G. Bernardini, G. Ghirlanda, S. Campana +14
We investigated the rest frame spectral lags of two complete samples of bright long (50) and short (6) gamma-ray bursts (GRB) detected by Swift. We analysed the Swift/BAT data thro…
Polarimetric and spectroscopic optical observations of the ultra-compact X-ray binary 4U 0614+091
M. C. Baglio, D. Mainetti, P. D'Avanzo +4
Aims: We present a polarimetric and spectroscopic study of the persistent ultra compact X-ray binary 4U 0614+091 aimed at searching for the emission of a relativistic particle jet…
Are LGRBs biased tracers of star formation? Clues from the host galaxies of the Swift/BAT6 complete sample of LGRBs. I: Stellar mass at z<1
S. D. Vergani, R. Salvaterra, J. Japelj +20
LGRBs are associated with massive stars and are therefore linked to star formation. The conditions necessary to produce LGRBs can affect the relation between the LGRB rate and star…
Engulfing a radio pulsar: the case of PSR J1023+0038
F. Coti Zelati, M. C. Baglio, S. Campana +10
The binary millisecond radio pulsar PSR J1023+0038 has been recently the subject of multiwavelength monitoring campaigns which revealed that an accretion disc has formed around the…
GRB 140206A: the most distant polarized Gamma-Ray Burst
D. Gotz, P. Laurent, S. Antier +4
The nature of the prompt gamma-ray emission of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) is still far from being completely elucidated. The measure of linear polarization is a powerful tool that can…
A complete sample of bright Swift short Gamma-Ray Bursts
P. D'Avanzo, R. Salvaterra, M. G. Bernardini +10
We present a carefully selected sample of short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) observed by the Swift satellite up to June 2013. Inspired by the criteria we used to build a similar sample…
