Agile Detection of Delayed Gamma-Ray Emission from the Short Gamma-Ray Burst GRB 090510

A. Giuliani, F. Fuschino, G. Vianello +59

Short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), typically lasting less than 2 s, are a special class of GRBs of great interest. We report the detection by the AGILE satellite of the short GRB 09051…
