EP260119a: A High-Redshift Gamma-Ray Quiet Fast X-ray Transient Probing a Potentially Hidden Population of Relativistic Explosions

Camila Angulo-Valdez, Asuka Kuwata, Edilberto Aguilar-Ruiz +41

Gamma-ray quiet fast X-ray transients (FXTs) provide a new approach for studying relativistic explosions that evade traditional gamma-ray triggers. In this work, we present multi-w…

Multiwavelength properties of short gamma ray bursts with extended emission observed by Swift

M. M. Dinatolo, A. Mei, R. Brivio +11

Short gamma-ray bursts with extended emission (SGRBEEs) are a particular class of long GRBs (LGRBs) which, despite their duration, share several observational features with short G…

Exploring the connection between compact object mergers and fast X-ray transients: The cases of LXT 240402A and EP250207b

R. L. Becerra, Yu-Han Yang, Eleonora Troja +29

The connection between compact object mergers and some extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXRTs) has long been hypothesized, but never ultimately established. In this work, we in…

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…

GRB minimum variability timescales with Fermi/GBM

R. Maccary, C. Guidorzi, A. E. Camisasca +8

Context. Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have traditionally been classified by duration into long (LGRBs) and short (SGRBs), with the former believed to originate from massive star collaps…

Gamma-ray burst taxonomy: looking for the third class on the spectral peak energy-duration plane in the rest frame

Anastasia Tsvetkova, Lorenzo Amati, Mattia Bulla +8

Two classes of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), corresponding to the short/hard and the long/soft events, with a putative intermediate class, are typically considered in the observer frame…

A search for periodic activity in multi-peaked long gamma-ray bursts

C. Guidorzi, M. Orlandini, R. Maccary +10

A sizeable fraction of gamma-ray burst (GRB) light curves (LCs) features a sequence of peaks, which holds information on the unknown way energy is dissipated into gamma-rays over t…

The Third Konus-Wind Catalog of Short Gamma-Ray bursts

Alexandra L. Lysenko, Dmitry S. Svinkin, Dmitry D. Frederiks +3

In this catalog, we present the results of a systematic study of 199 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by Konus-Wind between 2011 January 1 and 2021 August 31. The catalog ext…
