PoGOLite - A High Sensitivity Balloon-Borne Soft Gamma-ray Polarimeter
Tuneyoshi Kamae, Viktor Andersson, Makoto Arimoto +36
We describe a new balloon-borne instrument (PoGOLite) capable of detecting 10% polarisation from 200mCrab point-like sources between 25 and 80keV in one 6 hour flight. Polarisation…
The Swift satellite and redshifts of long gamma-ray bursts
Z. Bagoly, A. Mészáros, L. G. Balázs +6
Until 6 October 2005 sixteen redshifts have been measured of long gamma-ray bursts discovered by the Swift satellite. Further 45 redshifts have been measured of the long gamma-ray…
INTEGRAL observation of the high-mass X-ray transient V0332+53 during the 2005 outburst decline
N. Mowlavi, I. Kreykenbohm, S. E. Shaw +7
The decline of the high mass X-ray transient V0332+53 during the Dec. 2004 to Feb. 2005 outburst is analysed from the data recorded by INTEGRAL. The flux is shown to decrease expon…
Crab: the standard X-ray candle with all (modern) X-ray satellites
M. G. F. Kirsch et al.
Various X-ray satellites have used the Crab as a standard candle to perform their calibrations in the past. The calibration of XMM-Newton, however, is independent of the Crab nebul…
A large spin-up rate measured with INTEGRAL in the High Mass X-ray Binary Pulsar SAXJ2103.5+4545
L. Sidoli, S. Mereghetti, S. Larsson +7
The High Mass X-ray Binary Pulsar SAXJ2103.5+4545 has been observed with INTEGRAL several times during the last outburst in 2002-2004. We report a comprehensive study of all INTEGR…
New Gamma-Ray Probe of the Baryonic Dark Matter
A. F. Iyudin, V. Burwitz, J. Greiner +2
We expand on the recently reported detections of the gamma-ray resonant absorption along the line of sight toward gamma-ray bright quasars (QSOs), like 3C279. We propose to use thi…
