Gamma Ray Bursts Flares detected and observed by the Swift Satellite
Guido Chincarini, Alberto Moretti, Patrizia Romano +11
The detection of flares with the Swift satellite triggered a lot of bservational and theoretical interest in these phenomena. As a consequence a large analysis effort started withi…
Exploring Broadband GRB Behavior During gamma-ray Emission
S. A. Yost, H. F. Swan, E. S. Rykoff +44
The robotic ROTSE-III telescope network detected prompt optical emission contemporaneous with the gamma-ray emission of Swift events GRB051109A and GRB051111. Both datasets have co…
Long-term monitoring of the X-ray afterglow of GRB 050408 with Swift/XRT
M. Capalbi, D. Malesani, M. Perri +20
We present observations of the X-ray afterglow of GRB 050408, a gamma-ray burst discovered by HETE-II. Swift began observing the field 42 min after the burst, performing follow-up…
The Swift X-ray flaring afterglow of GRB 050607
Claudio Pagani, David C. Morris, Shiho Kobayashi +22
The unique capability of the Swift satellite to perform a prompt and autonomous slew to a newly detected Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) has yielded the discovery of interesting new properti…
The X-ray afterglow of the short gamma ray burst 050724
S. Campana, G. Tagliaferri, D. Lazzati +23
Short duration (<2 s) Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been a mystery since their discovery. Until May 2005 very little was known about short GRBs, but this situation has changed rapid…
Swift XRT Observations of the Afterglow of XRF 050416A
Vanessa Mangano, Valentina La Parola, Giancarlo Cusumano +20
Swift discovered XRF 050416A with the BAT and began observing it with its narrow field instruments only 64.5 s after the burst onset. Its very soft spectrum classifies this event a…
