Compton scattering in terrestrial gamma-ray flashes detected with the Fermi gamma-ray burst monitor

Gerard Fitzpatrick, Eric Cramer, Sheila McBreen +11

Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are short intense flashes of gamma rays associated with lightning activity in thunderstorms. Using Monte Carlo simulations of the relativistic…

Localization of Gamma-Ray Bursts using the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor

V. Connaughton, M. S. Briggs, A. Goldstein +25

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has detected over 1400 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) since it began science operations in July, 2008. We use a subset of over 300 GRBs localized b…
