A proposed network of Gamma-ray Burst detectors on the Global Navigation Satellite System Galileo G2

J. Greiner, U. Hugentobler, J. M. Burgess +3

The accurate localization of gamma-ray bursts remains a crucial task. While historically, improved localization have led to the discovery of afterglow emission and the realization…

The POLAR Gamma-Ray Burst Polarization Catalog

Merlin Kole, Nicolas De Angelis, Francesco Berlato +18

Despite over 50 years of research, many open questions remain about the origin and nature of GRBs. Polarization measurements of the prompt emission of these extreme phenomena have…

Improved Fermi-GBM GRB localizations using BALROG

F. Berlato, J. Greiner, J. Michael Burgess

The localizations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected with the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) onboard the Fermi satellite are known to be affected by significant systematic errors o…

Viewing short Gamma-ray Bursts from a different angle

J. Michael Burgess, Jochen Greiner, Damien Begue +3

The recent coincident detection of gravitational waves (GW) from a binary neutron star merger with aLIGO/Virgo and short-lived gamma-ray emission with Fermi/GBM (called GW 170817)…
