The Super-Soft X-ray Phase of Nova RS Ophiuchi 2006
J. P. Osborne, K. L. Page, A. P. Beardmore +13
Swift X-ray observations of the ~60 day super-soft phase of the recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi 2006 show the progress of nuclear burning on the white dwarf in exquisite detail. First s…
Discovery of a new Soft Gamma Repeater, SGR J1833-0832
E. Gogus, G. Cusumano, A. J. Levan +20
On 2010 March 19, the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope triggered on a short burst with temporal and spectral characteristics similar to those of Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. The so…
Discovery of the nearby long, soft GRB 100316D with an associated supernova
R. L. C. Starling, K. Wiersema, A. J. Levan +43
We report the Swift discovery of nearby long, soft gamma-ray burst GRB 100316D, and the subsequent unveiling of its low redshift host galaxy and associated supernova. We derive the…
