Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Soft Gamma Repeaters
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, S. Barthelmy, N. Gehrels +2
We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron…
Swift X-ray Afterglows and the Missing Jet Break Problem
J. L. Racusin, E. -W. Liang, D. N. Burrows +3
We present a systematic survey of the temporal and spectral properties of all GRB X-ray afterglows observed by Swift-XRT between January 2005 and July 2007. We have constructed a c…
A Magnetohydrodynamic Boost for Relativistic Jets
Yosuke Mizuno, Philip Hardee, Dieter H. Hartmann +2
We performed relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the hydrodynamic boosting mechanism for relativistic jets explored by Aloy & Rezzolla (2006) using the RAISHIN code. Si…
HETE-2 Localization and Observations of the Short, Hard Gamma-Ray Burst GRB020531
D. Q. Lamb, G. R. Ricker, J. -L. Atteia +44
The {\it HETE-2} (hereafter \HETE) French Gamma Telescope (FREGATE) and the Wide-field X-ray Monitor (WXM) instruments detected a short ( msec in the FREGATE 85-300 k…
Detection of the optical afterglow of GRB 000630: Implications for dark bursts
J. U. Fynbo, B. L. Jensen, J. Gorosabel +25
We present the discovery of the optical transient of the long-duration gamma-ray burst GRB000630. The optical transient was detected with the Nordic Optical Telescope 21.1 hours af…
