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…
Extraordinary luminous soft X-ray transient MAXI J0158-744 as an ignition of a nova on a very massive O-Ne white dwarf
M. Morii, H. Tomida, M. Kimura +29
We present the observation of an extraordinary luminous soft X-ray transient, MAXI J0158-744, by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) on 2011 November 11. This transient is ch…
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…
A new population of ultra-long duration gamma-ray bursts
A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir, R. L. C. Starling +38
We present comprehensive multiwavelength observations of three gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with durations of several thousand seconds. We demonstrate that these events are extragalacti…
