The Fermi GBM Gamma-Ray Burst Spectral Catalog: 10 Years of Data

S. Poolakkil, R. Preece, C. Fletcher +17

We present the systematic spectral analyses of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) during its first ten years of operation. This catalog con…

Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst

V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301

Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…

Fermi and Swift Observations of GRB 190114C: Tracing the Evolution of High-Energy Emission from Prompt to Afterglow

M. Ajello, M. Arimoto, M. Axelsson +147

We report on the observations of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 190114C by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory. The early-time observations reveal mul…

How Pulses in Short Gamma-Ray Bursts Constrain HMXRB Evolution

Jon Hakkila, Robert D. Preece

We demonstrate how pulse structures in Short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs), coupled with observations of GRB/GW 170817A, constrain the geometries of dying HMXRB systems composed of merg…

Gamma-ray burst models in light of the GRB 170817A - GW170817 connection

P. Veres, P. Mészáros, A. Goldstein +8

For the first time, a short gamma-ray burst (GRB) was unambiguously associated with a gravitational wave (GW) observation from a binary neutron star (NS) merger. This allows us to…

Which ? - The Characteristic Energy of Gamma-Ray Burst Spectra

Robert Preece, Adam Goldstein, Narayana Bhat +3

A characteristic energy of individual gamma-ray burst (GRB) spectra can in most cases be determined from the peak energy of the energy density spectra (), called '$E_{…
