The Hard X-ray Polarimeter X-Calibur - Design and Tests
M. Beilicke, W. R. Binns, J. Buckley +17
X-ray polarimetry promises to give new information about high-energy astrophysical sources, such as binary black hole systems, micro-quasars, active galactic nuclei, and gamma-ray…
Design and tests of the hard X-ray polarimeter X-Calibur
M. Beilicke, M. G. Baring, S. Barthelmy +17
X-ray polarimetry promises to give qualitatively new information about high-energy astrophysical sources, such as binary black hole systems, micro-quasars, active galactic nuclei,…
Host Galaxy Properties of the Swift BAT Ultra Hard X-ray Selected AGN
Michael Koss, Richard Mushotzky, Sylvain Veilleux +5
We have assembled the largest sample of ultra hard X-ray selected (14-195 keV) AGN with host galaxy optical data to date, with 185 nearby (z<0.05), moderate luminosity AGN from the…
The Second Swift BAT Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog
T. Sakamoto, S. D. Barthelmy, W. H. Baumgartner +12
We present the second Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) catalog of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which contains 476 bursts detected by the BAT between 2004 December 19 and 2009 December…
