INTEGRAL Results on Gamma-Ray Bursts and Polarization of Hard X-ray Sources
D Gotz, C. Gouiffes, J. Rodriguez +9
In this paper we first review the results obtained by the INTEGRAL mission in the domain of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), thanks to the INTEGRAL Burst Alert System, which is able to del…
2.5D Vehicle Odometry Estimation
Ciaran Eising, Leroy-Francisco Pereira, Jonathan Horgan +3
It is well understood that in ADAS applications, a good estimate of the pose of the vehicle is required. This paper proposes a metaphorically named 2.5D odometry, whereby the plana…
The INTEGRAL view of the pulsating hard X-ray sky: from accreting and transitional millisecond pulsars to rotation-powered pulsars and magnetars
A. Papitto, M. Falanga, W. Hermsen +30
In the last 25 years, a new generation of X-ray satellites imparted a significant leap forward in our knowledge of X-ray pulsars. The discovery of accreting and transitional millis…
Searching for the optical counterparts of two young gamma-ray pulsars
R. P. Mignani, V. Testa, M. Marelli +7
We report on the first deep optical observations of two -ray pulsars, both among the very first discovered by the {\em Fermi} Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The two pulsars are the…
A candidate optical counterpart to the middle-aged gamma-ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054
R. P. Mignani, V. Testa, M. Marelli +7
We carried out deep optical observations of the middle-aged -ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054 with the Very Large Telescope (VLT). We identified two objects, of magnitudes $m_v=23.10\p…
A recent change in the optical and γ-ray polarization of the Crab nebula and pulsar
Paul Moran, Gillian Kyne, Christian Gouiffes +5
We report on observations of the polarization of optical and γ-ray photons from the Crab nebula and pulsar system using the Galway Astronomical Stokes Polarimeter (GASP), the Hubbl…
VLT polarimetry observations of PSR B0656+14
R. P. Mignani, P. Moran, A Shearer +5
Optical polarisation measurements are key tests for different models of the pulsar magnetosphere. Furthermore, comparing the relative orientation of the phase-averaged linear polar…
HST optical polarimetry of the Vela pulsar & nebula
P. Moran, R. P. Mignani, A. Shearer
Polarisation measurements of pulsars offer an unique insight into the geometry of the emission regions in the neutron star magnetosphere. Therefore, they provide observational cons…
Optical Observations of PSR J0205+6449 - the next optical pulsar?
P. Moran, R. P. Mignani, S. Collins +3
PSR J0205+6449 is a young ({\approx} 5400 years), Crab-like pulsar detected in radio and at X and γ-ray energies and has the third largest spin-down flux among known rotation power…
Optical Polarimetry of the Inner Crab Nebula and Pulsar
Paul Moran, Andy Shearer, Roberto Mignani +4
Time-resolved polarisation measurements of pulsars offer an unique insight into the geometry of their emission regions. Such measure\ ments provide observational constraints on the…
INTEGRAL/IBIS and optical observations of the Crab nebula/pulsar polarisation
Paul Moran, Andy Shearer, Christian Gouiffes +1
Previous INTEGRAL/IBIS observations have shown that the gamma-ray radiation of the Crab Nebula is highly polarised and remarkably aligned along the axis of rotation of the pulsar (…
VLT observations of Fermi pulsars
R. P. Mignani, A. Shearer, A. de Luca +3
Many energetic gamma-ray pulsars discovered by Fermi are promising candidates for optical follow-ups. We present the results of the first deep optical observations of the two Vela-…
VLT observations of the two Fermi pulsars PSR J1357-6429 and PSR J1048-5832
R. P. Mignani, A. Shearer, A. De Luca +3
Optical observations of pulsars are crucial to study the neutron star properties, from the structure and composition of the interior, to the properties and geometry of the magnetos…
