Integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor into the 3rd Interplanetary Network
K. Hurley, M. Briggs, V. Connaughton +35
We are integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) into the Interplanetary Network (IPN) of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detectors. With the GBM, the IPN will comprise 9 experimen…
Recent discoveries of supersoft X-ray sources in M 31
M. Henze, W. Pietsch, F. Haberl +9
Classical novae (CNe) have recently been reported to represent the major class of supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs) in the central area of our neighbouring galaxy M 31. This paper pre…
PKS 0537-286, carrying the information of the environment of SMBHs in the early Universe
E. Bottacini, M. Ajello, J. Greiner +9
We present the results of a multifrequency campaign on the high-redshift (z = 3.1) blazar PKS 0537-286. The source was observed at different epochs from 2006 to 2008 with INTEGRAL…
A census of AM CVn stars: three new candidates and one confirmed 48.3-minute binary
Arne Rau, Gijs H. A. Roelofs, Paul J. Groot +4
We present three new candidate AM CVn binaries, plus one confirmed new system, from a spectroscopic survey of color-selected objects from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. All four sys…
The bright optical/NIR afterglow of the faint GRB 080710 - Evidence for a jet viewed off axis
T. Krühler, J. Greiner, P. Afonso +14
We investigate the optical/near-infrared light curve of the afterglow of GRB 080710 in the context of rising afterglows. Optical and near-infrared photometry was performed using th…
NTT, Spitzer and Chandra spectroscopy of SDSSJ095209.56+214313.3: the most luminous coronal-line supernova ever observed, or a stellar tidal disruption event ?
S. Komossa, H. Zhou, A. Rau +9
The galaxy SDSSJ0952+2143 showed remarkable emission-line properties first reported in 2008 (paper I), which are the consequence of a powerful high-energy flare. Here we report fol…
