A Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Search for Electromagnetic Signals Coincident with Gravitational-Wave Candidates in Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run
ray Burst Monitor Team, The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration +1160
We present a search for prompt gamma-ray counterparts to compact binary coalescence gravitational wave (GW) candidates from Advanced LIGO's first observing run (O1). As demonstrate…
Fermi GBM Observations of GRB 150101B: A Second Nearby Event with a Short Hard Spike and a Soft Tail
E. Burns, P. Veres, V. Connaughton +19
In light of the joint multimessenger detection of a binary neutron star merger as the gamma-ray burst GRB 170817A and in gravitational waves as GW170817, we reanalyze the Fermi Gam…
STROBE-X: A probe-class mission for X-ray spectroscopy and timing on timescales from microseconds to years
Paul S. Ray, Zaven Arzoumanian, Søren Brandt +30
We describe the Spectroscopic Time-Resolving Observatory for Broadband Energy X-rays (STROBE-X), a probe-class mission concept that will provide an unprecedented view of the X-ray…
NICER and Fermi GBM Observations of the First Galactic Ultraluminous X-ray Pulsar Swift J0243.6+6124
C. A. Wilson-Hodge, C. Malacaria, P. A. Jenke +19
Swift J0243.6+6124 is a newly discovered Galactic Be/X-ray binary, revealed in late September 2017 in a giant outburst with a peak luminosity of 2E+39 (d/7 kpc)^2 erg/s (0.1-10 keV…
Analysis of Sub-threshold Short Gamma-ray Bursts in Fermi GBM Data
D. Kocevski, E. Burns, A. Goldstein +11
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) is currently the most prolific detector of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). Recently the detection rate of short GRBs (SGRBs) has been dramatically…
Gamma-ray burst models in light of the GRB 170817A - GW170817 connection
P. Veres, P. Mészáros, A. Goldstein +8
For the first time, a short gamma-ray burst (GRB) was unambiguously associated with a gravitational wave (GW) observation from a binary neutron star (NS) merger. This allows us to…
On the interpretation of the Fermi GBM transient observed in coincidence with LIGO Gravitational Wave Event GW150914
V. Connaughton, E. Burns, A. Goldstein +25
The weak transient detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) 0.4 s after GW150914 has generated much speculation regarding its possible association with the black-hole bi…
