Identification of a Local Sample of Gamma-Ray Bursts Consistent with a Magnetar Giant Flare Origin
E. Burns, D. Svinkin, K. Hurley +23
Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are known to arise from distinct progenitor channels: short GRBs mostly from neutron star mergers and long GRBs from a rare type of core-collap…

Rapid Spectral Variability of a Giant Flare from a Magnetar in NGC 253
O. J. Roberts, P. Veres, M. G. Baring +18
Magnetars are slowly-rotating neutron stars with extremely strong magnetic fields ( G), episodically emitting ms long X-ray bursts with energies of $\sim10^{4…
