The ECLAIRs telescope onboard the SVOM mission for gamma-ray burst studies
Stephane Schanne
The X- and gamma-ray telescope ECLAIRs onboard the future mission for gamma-ray burst studies SVOM (Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor) is foreseen to ope…
Swift uncovers that SAX J0840.7+2248 is not an X-ray Binary, but BeppoSAX X-ray Rich GRB 980429
P. Romano, C. Guidorzi, L. Sidoli +8
During our Swift/XRT program to obtain X-ray positions at arcsecond level for a sample of Galactic X-ray binaries, we discovered that SAX J0840.7+2248 is not a binary, but rather B…
Short and canonical GRBs
Carlo Luciano Bianco, Maria Grazia Bernardini, Letizia Caito +3
Within the "fireshell" model for the Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) we define a "canonical GRB" light curve with two sharply different components: the Proper-GRB (P-GRB), emitted when the…
Status of GRB Observations with the Suzaku Wideband All-sky Monitor
M. S. Tashiro, Y. Terada, Y. Urata +28
The Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) is a function of the large lateral BGO shield of the Hard X-ray Detector (HXD) onboard Suzaku. Its large geometrical area of 800 cm^2 per side,…
Nonthermal Synchrotron and Synchrotron Self-Compton Emission from GRBs: Predictions for {\em Swift} and {\em GLAST}
Justin Finke, Charles Dermer, Markus Boettcher
Results of a leptonic jet model for the prompt emission and early afterglows of GRBs are presented. The synchrotron component is modeled with the canonical Band spectrum and the sy…
Unraveling the dynamics and kinematics of GRB hosts with high resolution spectroscopy
Christina C. Thoene, Johan P. U. Fynbo, Lise Christensen +2
In the last years the research on GRB host galaxies has proceeded to more detailed studies both using high resolution afterglow spectroscopy and spatially resolved spectra of nearb…
