The frontier of darkness: the cases of GRB 040223, GRB 040422, GRB 040624
P. D'Avanzo, P. Filliatre, P. Goldoni +23
Understanding the reasons for the faintness of the optical/near-infrared afterglows of the so-called dark bursts is essential to assess whether they form a subclass of GRBs, and he…
INTEGRAL observations of recurrent fast X-ray transient sources
V. Sguera, E. J. Barlow, A. J. Bird +9
Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) are believed to be non-recurrent bright X-ray sources lasting less than a day and occuring at serendipitous positions, they can best detected and disco…
Detection and analysis of a new INTEGRAL hard X-ray transient, IGR J17285-2922
E. J. Barlow, A. J. Bird, D. J. Clark +10
We present the transient nature of INTEGRAL source IGR J17285-2922, identified from a single period of activity during an IBIS/ISGRI Galactic Centre Deep Exposure in September 2003…
Evidence of polarisation in the prompt gamma-ray emission from GRB 930131 and GRB 960924
D. R. Willis, E. J. Barlow, A. J. Bird +7
The true nature of the progenitor to GRBs remains elusive; one characteristic that would constrain our understanding of the GRB mechanism considerably is gamma-ray polarimetry meas…
INTEGRAL IGR J18135-1751=HESS J1813-178: A new cosmic high energy accelerator from keV to TeV
P. Ubertini, L. Bassani, A. Malizia +10
We report the discovery of a soft gamma ray source, namely IGR J18135-1751, detected with the IBIS imager on board the INTEGRAL satellite. The source is persistent and has a 20-100…
Out of the darkness: the infrared afterglow of the INTEGRAL burst GRB 040422 observed with the VLT
P. Filliatre, P. D'Avanzo, S. Covino +15
GRB 040422 was detected by the INTEGRAL satellite at an angle of only 3 degrees from the Galactic plane. Analysis of the prompt emission observed with the SPI and IBIS instruments…
