POET: POlarimeters for Energetic Transients
J. E. Hill, M. L. McConnell, P. Bloser +15
POET (Polarimeters for Energetic Transients) is a Small Explorer mission concept proposed to NASA in January 2008. The principal scientific goal of POET is to measure GRB polarizat…
Panchromatic study of GRB 060124: from precursor to afterglow
P. Romano, S. Campana, G. Chincarini +35
We present observations of GRB 060124, the first event for which both the prompt and the afterglow emission could be observed simultaneously and in their entirety by the three Swif…
Swift observations of GRB050904: the most distant cosmic explosion ever observed
G. Cusumano, V. Mangano, G. Chincarini +30
Swift discovered the high redshift (z=6.29) GRB050904 with the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) and began observing with its narrow field instruments 161 s after the burst onset. This g…

Swift observations of the prompt X-ray emission and afterglow from GRB050126 and GRB050219A
M. R. Goad
We report on the temporal and spectral characteristics of the early X-ray emission from the Gamma Ray Bursts GRB050126 and GRB050219A as observed by Swift. The X-ray light-curves o…
An origin for short g-ray bursts unassociated with current star formation
S. D. Barthelmy, G. Chincarini, D. N. Burrows +28
Two short (<2 s) g-ray bursts (GRBs) have recently been localized and fading afterglow counterparts detected. The combination of these two results left unclear the nature of the ho…
