The optical rebrightening of GRB100814A: an interplay of forward and reverse shocks?

Massimiliano De Pasquale, N. P. M. Kuin, S. Oates +36

We present a wide dataset of gamma-ray, X-ray, UVOIR, and radio observations of the Swift GRB100814A. At the end of the slow decline phase of the X-ray and optical afterglow, this…

1SXPS: A deep Swift X-ray Telescope point source catalog with light curves and spectra

P. A. Evans, J. P. Osborne, A. P. Beardmore +9

We present the 1SXPS (Swift-XRT Point Source) catalog of 151,524 X-ray point-sources detected by the Swift-XRT in 8 years of operation. The catalog covers 1905 square degrees distr…

GRB 130427A: a Nearby Ordinary Monster

A. Maselli, A. Melandri, L. Nava +63

Long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are an extremely rare outcome of the collapse of massive stars, and are typically found in the distant Universe. Because of its intrinsic lumi…

Chandra Spectroscopy of MAXI J1305-704: Detection of an Infalling Black Hole Disk Wind?

J. M. Miller, J. Raymond, T. R. Kallman +9

We report on a Chandra/HETG X-ray spectrum of the black hole candidate MAXI J1305-704. A rich absorption complex is detected in the Fe L band, including density-sensitive lines fro…

An Anti-Glitch in a Magnetar

R. F. Archibald, V. M. Kaspi, C. -Y. Ng +6

Magnetars are neutron stars showing dramatic X-ray and soft -ray outbursting behaviour that is thought to be powered by intense internal magnetic fields. Like conventional young…

The 7.1 hour X-ray-UV-NIR period of the gamma-ray classical Nova Monocerotis 2012

K. L. Page, J. P Osborne, R. M. Wagner +4

Nova Mon 2012 is the third gamma-ray transient identified with a thermonuclear runaway on a white dwarf, that is, a nova event. Swift monitoring has revealed the distinct evolution…
