Predictions for Short Gamma-Ray Burst Detections by COSI
Eliza Neights, Eric Burns, Nicolò Parmiggiani +21
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a soft gamma-ray telescope scheduled to launch in 2027. COSI will trigger onboard the spacecraft in response to short-duration transie…
A Search for GeV Emission from Magnetar Giant Flare Candidates with Fermi-LAT
Vikas Chand, Michela Negro, Nicola Omodei +5
The discovery of delayed GeV emission from the extragalactic magnetar giant flare (MGF) GRB 200415A, located in the nearby Sculptor galaxy, revealed for the first time that these r…
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…
Multidisciplinary Science in the Multimessenger Era
Eric Burns, Christopher L. Fryer, Ivan Agullo +82
Astrophysical observations of the cosmos allow us to probe extreme physics and answer foundational questions on our universe. Modern astronomy is increasingly operating under a hol…
Extragalactic Magnetar Giant Flares: Population Implications, Rates and Prospects for Gamma-Rays, Gravitational Waves and Neutrinos
Paz Beniamini, Zorawar Wadiasingh, Aaron Trigg +5
Magnetar Giant Flares (MGFs) are the most energetic non-catastrophic transients known to originate from stellar objects. The first discovered events were nearby. In recent years, s…
Extragalactic Magnetar Giant Flare GRB 231115A: Insights from Fermi/GBM Observations
Aaron C. Trigg, Rachael Stewart, Alex Van Kooten +22
We present the detection and analysis of GRB 231115A, a candidate extragalactic magnetar giant flare (MGF) observed by Fermi/GBM and localized by INTEGRAL to the starburst galaxy M…
The role of magnetar transient activity in time-domain and multimessenger astronomy
Michela Negro, George Younes, Zorawar Wadiasingh +3
Time-domain and multimessenger astronomy (TDAMM) involves the study of transient and time-variable phenomena across various wavelengths and messengers. The Astro2020 Decadal Survey…
GRB 180128A: A Second Magnetar Giant Flare Candidate from the Sculptor Galaxy
Aaron C. Trigg, Eric Burns, Oliver J. Roberts +14
Magnetars are slowly rotating neutron stars that possess the strongest magnetic fields () known in the cosmos. They display a range of transient high-en…
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager
John A. Tomsick, Steven E. Boggs, Andreas Zoglauer +72
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a NASA Small Explorer (SMEX) satellite mission in development with a planned launch in 2027. COSI is a wide-field gamma-ray telescope…
The cosipy library: COSI's high-level analysis software
Israel Martinez-Castellanos, Savitri Gallego, Chien-You Huang +72
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a selected Small Explorer (SMEX) mission launching in 2027. It consists of a large field-of-view Compton telescope that will probe wit…
