Integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor into the 3rd Interplanetary Network
K. Hurley, M. Briggs, V. Connaughton +35
We are integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) into the Interplanetary Network (IPN) of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detectors. With the GBM, the IPN will comprise 9 experimen…
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…
Discovery of a new Soft Gamma Repeater: SGR J0418+5729
A. J. van der Horst, V. Connaughton, C. Kouveliotou +31
On 2009 June 5, the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope triggered on two short, and relatively dim bursts with spectral properties similar to…
Swifts GRB GRB071010B : outlier of the and correlations
Yuji Urata, Kuiyun Huang, Myungshin Im +12
We present multi-band results for GRB071010B based on \Swift, \Suzaku, and ground-based optical observations. This burst is an ideal target to evaluate the robustness of the ${\rm…
Not only once: the amazing gamma-ray activity of the blazar PKS 1510-089
F. D'Ammando, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +6
PKS 1510-089 is a powerful Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar at z=0.361 with radiative output dominated by the gamma-ray emission. In the last two years PKS 1510-089 showed high variabili…
The first broad-band X-ray study of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient SAXJ1818.6-1703 in outburst
L. Sidoli, P. Romano, P. Esposito +7
The Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient (SFXT) SAXJ1818.6-1703 underwent an outburst on 2009 May 6 and was observed with Swift. We report on these observations which, for the first tim…
