A Joint Fermi-GBM and Swift-BAT Analysis of Gravitational-Wave Candidates from the Third Gravitational-wave Observing Run

C. Fletcher, J. Wood, R. Hamburg +1696

We present Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM) and Swift Burst Alert Telescope (Swift-BAT) searches for gamma-ray/X-ray counterparts to gravitational wave (GW) candidate even…

Fermi-GBM Discovery of GRB 221009A: An Extraordinarily Bright GRB from Onset to Afterglow

S. Lesage, P. Veres, M. S. Briggs +136

We report the discovery of GRB 221009A, the highest flux gamma-ray burst ever observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). This GRB has continuous prompt emission lasting m…

GRB 221009A, The BOAT

Eric Burns, Dmitry Svinkin, Edward Fenimore +23

GRB 221009A has been referred to as the Brightest Of All Time (the BOAT). We investigate the veracity of this statement by comparing it with a half century of prompt gamma-ray burs…

In search of short gamma-ray burst optical counterpart with the Zwicky Transient Facility

Tomás Ahumada, Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin +46

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggers on-board in response to 40 short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) per year; however, their large localization regions have made the…

The Future of Gamma-Ray Experiments in the MeV-EeV Range

Kristi Engel, Jordan Goodman, Petra Huentemeyer +95

Gamma-rays, the most energetic photons, carry information from the far reaches of extragalactic space with minimal interaction or loss of information. They bring messages about par…

The Fermi GBM Gamma-Ray Burst Spectral Catalog: 10 Years of Data

S. Poolakkil, R. Preece, C. Fletcher +17

We present the systematic spectral analyses of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) during its first ten years of operation. This catalog con…

A radiatively-quiet glitch and anti-glitch in the magnetar 1E 2259+586

G. Younes, P. S. Ray, M. G. Baring +5

We report on the timing and spectral properties of the soft X-ray emission from the magnetar 1E 2259+586 from January 2013, months after the detection of an anti-glitch, u…
