Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transient
S. R. Oates, N. P. M. Kuin, M. Nicholl +57
We report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/O…
GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst
Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara +53
We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ra…
Swift/UVOT follow-up of Gravitational Wave Alerts in the O3 era
S. R. Oates, F. E. Marshall, A. A. Breeveld +41
In this paper, we report on the observational performance of the Swift Ultra-violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) in response to the Gravitational Wave alerts announced by the Advanced…
Swift Multiwavelength Follow-up of LVC S200224ca and the Implications for Binary Black Hole Mergers
N. J. Klingler, A. Lien, S. R. Oates +41
On 2020 February 24, during their third observing run ("O3"), the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory and Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected S200224ca: a candidate…
Swift-XRT follow-up of gravitational wave triggers during the third aLIGO/Virgo observing run
K. L. Page, P. A. Evans, A. Tohuvavohu +41
The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory followed up 18 gravitational wave (GW) triggers from the LIGO/Virgo collaboration during the O3 observing run in 2019/2020, performing approximat…
Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst
V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…
