The in-flight spectroscopic performance of the Swift XRT CCD camera during 2006-2007
O. Godet, A. P. Beardmore, A. F. Abbey +26
The Swift X-ray Telescope focal plane camera is a front-illuminated MOS CCD, providing a spectral response kernel of 135 eV FWHM at 5.9 keV as measured before launch. We describe t…
Swift and infra-red observations of the blazar 3C~454.3 during the giant X-ray flare of May 2005
P. Giommi, A. J. Blustin, M. Capalbi +16
We present the results of a series of Swift and quasi simultaneous ground-based infra-red observations of the blazar 3C 454.3 carried out in April-May 2005 when the source was 10 t…
Bright X-ray Flares in Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows
D. N. Burrows, P. Romano, A. Falcone +31
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows have provided important clues to the nature of these massive explosive events, providing direct information on the nearby environment and indirect…
