An exceptionally bright flare from SGR1806-20 and the origins of short-duration gamma-ray bursts
K. Hurley, S. E. Boggs, D. M. Smith +17
Soft-gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) are galactic X-ray stars that emit numerous short-duration (about 0.1 s) bursts of hard X-rays during sporadic active periods. They are thought to b…
