ComPair-2: A Next Generation Medium Energy Gamma-ray Telescope Prototype
Regina Caputo, Carolyn Kierans, Nicholas Cannady +30
Many questions posed in the Astro2020 Decadal survey in both the New Messengers and New Physics and the Cosmic Ecosystems science themes require a gamma-ray mission with capabiliti…
Extremely luminous optical afterglow of an energetic gamma-ray burst GRB 230204B
Rahul Gupta, Judith Racusin, Vladimir Lipunov +47
Robotic telescope networks play an important role in capturing early and bright optical afterglows, providing critical insights into the energetics and emission mechanisms of GRBs.…
Multiwavelength Afterglow Analysis of GRB 221009A: Unveiling the Evolution of a Cooling Break in a Wind-like Medium
Donggeun Tak, Z. Lucas Uhm, Gregory S. H. Paek +8
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic explosions in the universe, and their afterglow emission provides an opportunity to probe the physics of relativistic shock waves in…
Time-Domain And MultiMessenger Astrophysics Communications Science Analysis Group Report
Jamie A. Kennea, Judith L. Racusin, Eric Burns +11
The Time-Domain And MultiMessenger (TDAMM) Communications Science Analysis Group (TDAMMCommSAG) was formulated to describe the unique technical challenges of communicating rapidly…
GRB 221009A: the B.O.A.T Burst that Shines in Gamma Rays
M. Axelsson, M. Ajello, M. Arimoto +151
We present a complete analysis of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data of GRB 221009A, the brightest Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) ever detected. The burst emission above 30 MeV detected…
An Intermediate Luminosity GRB 210210A: The early onset of the external forward shock in the X-ray?
Rahul Gupta, A. K. Ror, S. B. Pandey +5
We have analyzed the prompt and afterglow characteristics of the intermediate luminosity burst ``GRB 210210A". Our prompt emission analysis indicates that GRB 210210A is among the…
GRB Progenitor Classification from Gamma-Ray Burst Prompt and Afterglow Observations
P. Nuessle, J. L. Racusin, N. E. White
Using an established classification technique, we leverage standard observations and analyses to predict the progenitors of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). This technique, utilizing suppo…
A detailed time-resolved and energy-resolved spectro-polarimetric study of bright GRBs detected by AstroSat CZTI in its first year of operation
Rahul Gupta, S. B. Pandey, S. Gupta +11
The radiation mechanism underlying the prompt emission remains unresolved and can be resolved using a systematic and uniform time-resolved spectro-polarimetric study. In this paper…
