Swift Observations of Shock Evolution in RS Ophiuchi
M. F. Bode, J. P. Osborne, K. L. Page +11
Our \textit{Swift} observations of RS Oph form an unprecedented X-ray dataset to undertake investigations of both the central source and the interaction of the outburst ejecta with…
V723 Cassiopeia still on in X-rays: A bright Super Soft Source 12 years after outburst
J. U-. Ness, G. Schwarz, S. Starrfield +5
We find that the classical nova V723 Cas (1995) is still an active X-ray source more than 12 years after outburst and analyze seven X-ray observations carried out with Swift betwee…
Automatic analysis of Swift-XRT data
P. A. Evans, L. G. Tyler, A. P. Beardmore +1
The Swift spacecraft detects and autonomously observes ~100 Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) per year, ~96% of which are detected by the X-ray telescope (XRT). GRBs are accompanied by optic…
A universal GRB photon energy-peak luminosity relation
R. Willingale, P. T. O'Brien, M. R. Goad +3
The energetics and emission mechanism of GRBs are not well understood. Here we demonstrate that the instantaneous peak flux or equivalent isotropic peak luminosity, L_iso ergs s^-1…
Swift observations of GRB 060614: an anomalous burst with a well behaved afterglow
V. Mangano, S. T. Holland, D. Malesani +22
GRB 060614 is a remarkable GRB observed by Swift with puzzling properties, which challenge current progenitor models. The lack of any bright SN down to very strict limits and the v…
X-ray Flares in Early GRB Afterglows
D. N. Burrows, A. Falcone, G. Chincarini +12
The Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) has discovered that flares are quite common in early X-ray afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), being observed in roughly 50% of afterglows with p…
