Intrinsic properties of a complete sample of HETE-2 gamma-ray bursts. A measure of the GRB rate in the Local Universe
A. Pélangeon, J. -L. Atteia, Y. E. Nakagawa +32
Aims: Taking advantage of the forthcoming Catalog of the HETE-2 mission, the aim of this paper is to evaluate the main properties of HETE-2 GRBs - the E_peak, the T_90 and the E_is…
No Evidence for Variability of Intervening Absorption Lines toward GRB 060206: Implications for the Mg II Incidence Problem
Kentaro Aoki, Tomonori Totani, Takashi Hattori +6
We examine variability of absorption line strength of intervening systems along the line of sight to GRB 060206 at , by the low-resolution optical spectra obtained by the…
PoGOLite - A High Sensitivity Balloon-Borne Soft Gamma-ray Polarimeter
Tuneyoshi Kamae, Viktor Andersson, Makoto Arimoto +36
We describe a new balloon-borne instrument (PoGOLite) capable of detecting 10% polarisation from 200mCrab point-like sources between 25 and 80keV in one 6 hour flight. Polarisation…
Observation Campaign of SS 433 in April 2006
T. Kotani, K. Kubota, M. Namiki +19
A radio-IR-optical-X-ray observation campaign of SS 433 has been performed in April 2006, when the jet axis is almost perpendicular to the line of sight. Five flares have been dete…
DIOS: the Diffuse Intergalactic Oxygen Surveyor
T. Ohashi, M. Ishida, S. Sasaki +14
We present our proposal for a small X-ray mission DIOS (Diffuse Intergalactic Oxygen Surveyor), consisting of a 4-stage X-ray telescope and an array of TES microcalorimeters, coole…
Afterglow spectrum of a gamma-ray burst with the highest known redshift z=6.295
N. Kawai, G. Kosugi, K. Aoki +25
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their afterglows have been proposed as an excellent probe to study the evolution of cosmic star formation, the reionization of the intergalactic medium,…
