The 157-month Swift-BAT All-Sky Hard X-Ray Survey
Amy Y. Lien, Hans Krimm, Craig Markwardt +12
The Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) onboard the Neil Gehrels Swift observatory has been serving as a survey instrument for the hard X-ray sky, and has detected thousands of X-ray sourc…
Swift-BAT GUANO follow-up of gravitational-wave triggers in the third LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
Gayathri Raman, Samuele Ronchini, James Delaunay +1819
We present results from a search for X-ray/gamma-ray counterparts of gravitational-wave (GW) candidates from the third observing run (O3) of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) network usin…
A Missing-Link in the Supernova-GRB Connection: The Case of SN 2012ap
Sayan Chakraborti, Alicia Soderberg, Laura Chomiuk +50
Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are characterized by ultra-relativistic outflows, while supernovae are generally characterized by non-relativistic ejecta. GRB afterglows decelerate rapidly…
The Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON)
M. W. E. Smith, D. B. Fox, D. F. Cowen +18
We summarize the science opportunity, design elements, current and projected partner observatories, and anticipated science returns of the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory…
Identifying the Location in the Host Galaxy of the Short GRB 111117A with the Chandra Sub-arcsecond Position
T. Sakamoto, E. Troja, K. Aoki +31
We present our successful Chandra program designed to identify, with sub-arcsecond accuracy, the X-ray afterglow of the short GRB 111117A, which was discovered by Swift and Fermi.…
The Hard X-ray Polarimeter X-Calibur - Design and Tests
M. Beilicke, W. R. Binns, J. Buckley +17
X-ray polarimetry promises to give new information about high-energy astrophysical sources, such as binary black hole systems, micro-quasars, active galactic nuclei, and gamma-ray…
Panchromatic Observations of SN 2011dh Point to a Compact Progenitor Star
Alicia M. Soderberg, R. Margutti, B. A. Zauderer +32
We report the discovery and detailed monitoring of X-ray emission associated with the Type IIb SN 2011dh using data from the Swift and Chandra satellites, placing it among the best…
Testing the Epeak - Eiso relation for GRBs detected by Swift and Suzaku-WAM
H. A. Krimm, K. Yamaoka, S. Sugita +12
One of the most prominent, yet controversial associations derived from the ensemble of prompt-phase observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is the apparent correlation in the sourc…
