Prospects for GRB Science with the Fermi Large Area Telescope

D. L. Band, M. Axelsson, L. Baldini +54

The LAT instrument on the Fermi mission will reveal the rich spectral and temporal gamma-ray burst phenomena in the > 100 MeV band. The synergy with Fermi's GBM detectors will link…

Short Gamma-Ray Bursts with Extended Emission

Jay P. Norris, Jerry T. Bonnell

The recent association of several short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with early type galaxies with low star formation rate demonstrates that short bursts arise from a different progenit…

Connection Between Energy-dependent Lags And Peak Luminosity In Gamma-ray Bursts

J. P. Norris, G. F. Marani, J. T. Bonnell

We suggest a connection between the pulse paradigm at gamma-ray energies and the recently demonstrated luminosity distribution in gamma-ray bursts: the spectral evolution timescale…

Gravitationally Lensed Gamma-Ray Bursts as Probes of Dark Compact Objects

G. F. Marani, R. J. Nemiroff, J. P. Norris +2

If dark matter in the form of compact objects comprises a large fraction of the mass of the universe, then gravitational lensing effects on gamma-ray bursts are expected. We utiliz…

Multiwavelength Observations of a Dramatic High Energy Flare in the Blazar 3C 279

A. E. Wehrle, E. Pian, C. M. Urry +3

The blazar 3C 279, one of the brightest identified extragalactic objects in the gamma-ray sky, underwent a flare of a factor 10 amplitude in gamma-rays towards the end of a 3-week…
