The dust-scattering X-ray rings of the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408
A. Tiengo, G. Vianello, P. Esposito +14
On 2009 January 22 numerous strong bursts were detected from the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408. Swift/XRT and XMM-Newton/EPIC observations carried out in the following two…
XMM-Newton and Swift observations prove GRB 090709A to be a distant, standard, long GRB
A. De Luca, P. Esposito, G. L. Israel +4
GRB 090709A is a long gamma-ray burst (GRB) discovered by Swift, featuring a bright X-ray afterglow as well as a faint infrared transient with very red and peculiar colors. The bur…
SVOM: a new mission for Gamma-Ray Burst Studies
D. Gotz, J. Paul, S. Basa +14
We present the SVOM (Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Object Monitor) mission, that is being developed in cooperation between the Chinese National Space Agency (CNSA),…
Strong bursts from the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408 observed with the INTEGRAL/SPI Anti-Coincidence Shield
S. Mereghetti, D. Gotz, G. Weidenspointner +9
In January 2009, multiple short bursts of soft gamma-rays were detected from the direction of the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408 by different satellites. Here we report on t…
Variable polarization measured in the prompt emission of GRB 041219A using IBIS on board INTEGRAL
D. Gotz, P. Laurent, F. Lebrun +2
Polarization measurements provide direct insight into the nature of astrophysical processes. Unfortunately, only a few instruments are available for this kind of measurements at ga…
Modelling magnetars' high energy emission through Resonant Cyclotron Scattering
D. Gotz, N. Rea, S. Zane +2
We present a systematic fit of a model of resonant cyclotron scattering (RCS) to the X and soft gamma-ray data of four magnetars, including anomalous X-ray pulsars, and soft gamma…
