Fall back accretion and energy injections in gamma-ray bursts
Y. B. Yu, X. F. Wu, Y. F. Huang +4
Intense flares that occur at late times relative to the prompt phase have been observed by the satellite in the X-ray afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Here, we presen…
Predictions for the Detection of Earth and Mars Trojan Asteroids by the Gaia satellite
M. Todd, P. Tanga, D. M. Coward +1
The European Space Agency Gaia satellite, planned for launch in late 2013, will perform systematic astrometric observations of the whole sky over a five year period. During this mi…
The Potential for Detecting Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows from Population III Stars with the Next Generation of Infrared Telescopes
Damien Macpherson, D. M. Coward, M. G. Zadnik
We investigate the detectability of a proposed population of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) from the collapse of Population III (Pop III) stars. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and…
Search for long-lived gravitational-wave transients coincident with long gamma-ray bursts
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +875
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been linked to extreme core-collapse supernovae from massive stars. Gravitational waves (GW) offer a probe of the physics behind long GRBs. We inv…
The diversity of progenitors and emission mechanisms for ultra-long bursts
B. Gendre, G. Stratta, J. L. Atteia +10
GRB 111209A is the longest ever recorded burst. This burst was detected by Swift and Konus-Wind, and we obtained TOO time from XMM-Newton as well as prompt data from TAROT. We made…
The ultra-long GRB 111209A - II. Prompt to afterglow and afterglow properties
G. Stratta, B. Gendre, J. L. Atteia +7
The "ultra-long" Gamma Ray Burst GRB 111209A at redshift z=0.677, is so far the longest GRB ever observed, with rest frame prompt emission duration of ~4 hours. In order to explain…
Parameter estimation for compact binary coalescence signals with the first generation gravitational-wave detector network
the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +801
Compact binary systems with neutron stars or black holes are one of the most promising sources for ground-based gravitational wave detectors. Gravitational radiation encodes rich i…
