The Pioneer Venus Orbiter Catalog of Gamma-Ray Bursts

E. E. Fenimore, A. Crider, J. J. M. int Zand +3

The Pioneer Venus Orbiter (PVO) Gamma-ray burst experiment detected 318 gamma-ray bursts over about 14 years between 1978 and 1992 with near coverage. This data set complement…

Spectral Cross-calibration of the Konus-Wind, the Suzaku/WAM, and the Swift/BAT Data using Gamma-Ray Bursts

T. Sakamoto, V. Pal'shin, K. Yamaoka +20

We report on the spectral cross-calibration results of the Konus-Wind, the Suzaku/WAM, and the Swift/BAT instruments using simultaneously observed gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). This is…

Probing the Nature of Short Swift Bursts via Deep INTEGRAL Monitoring of GRB 050925

T. Sakamoto, L. Barbier, S. D. Barthelmy +10

We present results from Swift, XMM-Newton, and deep INTEGRAL monitoring in the region of GRB 050925. This short Swift burst is a candidate for a newly discovered soft gamma-ray rep…

Spectral Lag Relations in GRB Pulses Detected with HETE-2

M. Arimoto, N. Kawai, K. Asano +36

Using a pulse-fit method, we investigate the spectral lags between the traditional gamma-ray band (50-400 keV) and the X-ray band (6-25 keV) for 8 GRBs with known redshifts (GRB 01…

Swift/BAT monitoring of Fermi/LAT sources

Hans A. Krimm, Scott D. Barthelmy, Neil Gehrels +9

The Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) hard X-ray transient monitor tracks more than 700 galactic and extragalactic sources on time scales ranging from a single Swift pointing (appr…
