On the interpretation of the Fermi GBM transient observed in coincidence with LIGO Gravitational Wave Event GW150914
V. Connaughton, E. Burns, A. Goldstein +25
The weak transient detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) 0.4 s after GW150914 has generated much speculation regarding its possible association with the black-hole bi…
An Ordinary Short Gamma-Ray Burst with Extraordinary Implications: Fermi-GBM Detection of GRB 170817A
A. Goldstein, P. Veres, E. Burns +27
On August 17, 2017 at 12:41:06 UTC the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) detected and triggered on the short gamma-ray burst GRB 170817A. Approximately 1.7 s prior to this GRB, t…
Fermi GBM Observations of LIGO Gravitational Wave event GW150914
V. Connaughton, E. Burns, A. Goldstein +32
With an instantaneous view of 70% of the sky, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) is an excellent partner in the search for electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave (…
Pulse properties of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
Suzanne Foley, Gerard Fitzpatrick, Michael S. Briggs +17
The Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has triggered on over 300 terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) since its launch in June 2008. With 14…
Fermi-LAT Observations of the Gamma-ray Burst GRB 130427A
LAT collaboration, GBM collaboration
The observations of the exceptionally bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A by the Large Area Telescope aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope provide constraints on the nature…
The First Pulse of the Extremely Bright GRB 130427A: A Test Lab for Synchrotron Shocks
R. Preece, J. Michael Burgess, A. von Kienlin +156
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A is one of the most energetic GRBs ever observed. The initial pulse up to 2.5 s is possibly the brightest well-isolated pulse observed to date. A fine…
SGR J1550-5418 bursts detected with the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor during its most prolific activity
A. J. van der Horst, C. Kouveliotou, N. M. Gorgone +32
We have performed detailed temporal and time-integrated spectral analysis of 286 bursts from SGR J1550-5418 detected with the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) in January 2009, r…
Constraining the High-Energy Emission from Gamma-ray Bursts with Fermi
LAT Collaboration, GBM Collaboration
We examine 288 GRBs detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope's Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) that fell within the field-of-view of Fermi's Large Area Telescope (LAT) during…
Detection of a spectral break in the extra hard component of GRB 090926A
Fermi-LAT, Fermi-GBM collaborations
We report on the observation of the bright, long gamma-ray burst, GRB 090926A, by the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) and Large Area Telescope (LAT) instruments on board the \Fermi\…
Fermi observations of high-energy gamma-ray emission from GRB 090217A
Fermi-LAT, Fermi-GBM Collaborations
The Fermi observatory is advancing our knowledge of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) through pioneering observations at high energies, covering more than 7 decades in energy with the two on…
The Swift/Fermi GRB 080928 from 1 eV to 150 keV
A. Rossi, S. Schulze, S. Klose +28
We present the results of a comprehensive study of the gamma-ray burst 080928 and of its afterglow. GRB 080928 was a long burst detected by Swift/BAT and Fermi/GBM. It is one of th…
Optical and near-infrared follow-up observations of four Fermi/LAT GRBs : Redshifts, afterglows, energetics and host galaxies
S. McBreen, T. Krühler, A. Rau +13
Fermi can measure the spectral properties of gamma-ray bursts over a very large energy range and is opening a new window on the prompt emission of these energetic events. Localizat…
