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…
Swift and Fermi observations of X-ray flares: the case of Late Internal Shock
E. Troja, L. Piro, V. Vasileiou +5
Simultaneous Swift and Fermi observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) offer a unique broadband view of their afterglow emission, spanning more than ten decades in energy. We present…
Taking the Band Function Too Far: A Tale of Two 's
J. Michael Burgess, Felix Ryde, Hoi-Fung Yu
The long standing problem of identifying the emission mechanism operating in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has produced a myriad of possible models that have the potential of explaining…
Synchrotron Cooling in Energetic Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
Hoi-Fung Yu, Jochen Greiner, Hendrik van Eerten +15
We study the time-resolved spectra of eight GRBs observed by Fermi GBM in its first five years of mission, with 1 keV - 1 MeV fluence erg cm and signal-…
Are GRB Blackbodies an Artifact of Spectral Evolution?
J. Michael Burgess, Felix Ryde
The analysis of gamma-ray burst (GRB) spectra with multi-component emission models has become an important part of the field. In particular, multi-component analysis where one comp…
On Spectral Evolution and Temporal Binning in Gamma-Ray Bursts
J. Michael Burgess
The understanding of the prompt -ray spectra of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is of great importance to correctly interpreting the physical mechanisms that produce the underlying even…
An Observed Correlation Between Thermal and Non-Thermal Emission in Gamma-Ray Bursts
J. Michael Burgess, Robert D. Preece, Felix Ryde +22
Recent observations by the Gamma-ray Space Telescope have confirmed the existence of thermal and non-thermal components in the prompt photon spectra of some Gamma-ray burst…
