Swift observations of two outbursts from the magnetar 4U 0142+61
R. F. Archibald, V. M. Kaspi, P. Scholz +3
4U 0142+61 is one of a small class of persistently bright magnetars. Here we report on a monitoring campaign of 4U 0142+61 from 2011 July 26 - 2016 June 12 using the Swift X-ray Te…
Evidence for the magnetar nature of 1E 161348-5055 in RCW 103
A. D'Aì, P. A. Evans, D. N. Burrows +25
We report on the detection of a bright, short, structured X-ray burst coming from the supernova remnant RCW 103 on 2016 June 22 caught by the Swift/BAT monitor, and on the follow-u…
Swift follow-up of the Gravitational Wave source GW150914
P. A. Evans, J. A. Kennea, S. D. Barthelmy +22
The Advanced LIGO observatory recently reported the first direct detection of gravitational waves (GW) which triggered ALIGO on 2015 September 14. We report on observations taken w…
