The X-ray Position and Optical Counterpart of the Accretion-Powered Millisecond Pulsar XTE J1814-338

Miriam I. Krauss, Zhongxiang Wang, Allyn Dullighan +7

We report the precise optical and X-ray localization of the 3.2 ms accretion-powered X-ray pulsar XTE J1814-338 with data from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory as well as optical obse…

High Energy Observations of XRF 030723: Evidence for an Off-axis Gamma-Ray Burst?

N. R. Butler, T. Sakamoto, M. Suzuki +34

We report High Energy Transient Explorer 2 (HETE-2) Wide Field X-ray Monitor/French Gamma Telescope observations of XRF030723 along with observations of the XRF afterglow made usin…

IR and Optical Observations of GRB 030115

Allyn Dullighan, George Ricker, Nathaniel Butler +1

We present an upper limit on the brightness of the afterglow of the long GRB 030115 measured from Infrared (IR) images taken with the Magellan Classic Cam instrument of Ks > 22 at…

Previously Claimed(/Unclaimed) X-ray Emission Lines in High Resolution Afterglow Spectra

N. Butler, A. Dullighan, P. Ford +5

We review the significance determination for emission lines in the Chandra HETGS spectrum for GRB020813, and we report on a search for additional lines in high resolution Chandra s…

Optical and X-ray Observations of the Afterglow to XRF030723

N. Butler, A. Dullighan, P. Ford +6

The X-ray-flash XRF030723 was detected by the HETE satellite and rapidly disseminated, allowing for an optical transient to be detected ~1 day after the burst. We discuss observati…

Chandra Observations of the Optically Dark GRB030528

N. Butler, A. Dullighan, P. Ford +5

The X-ray-rich GRB030528 was detected by the HETE satellite and its localization was rapidly disseminated. However, early optical observations failed to detect a counterpart source…
