Three-year swift-bat survey of active galactic nuclei: reconciling theory and observations?*

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived and analyzed the absorption distribution of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using a complete sample of AGNs detected by Swift-BAT in the first three years of the survey and showed that the real intrinsic fraction of Compton-thick AGNs is 20+9 −6%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gamma-ray bursts in the comoving frame

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate the bulk Lorentz factor Γ 0 of gamma-ray bursts using the measured peak time of their afterglow light curves, and find that the isotropic energy and luminosity correlate in a similar way with Γ0, i.e., the peak energy Epeak∝Γ0.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 60 month all-sky burst alert telescope survey of active galactic nucleus and the anisotropy of nearby AGNs.

TL;DR: The results of 60 months of observation of the hard X-ray sky with the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) have been presented in this paper, where the authors used the BAT data set to refine the determination of the log N-log S of active galactic nuclei (AGN) samples detected above 15 keV.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 60-month all-sky BAT Survey of AGN and the Anisotropy of Nearby AGN

TL;DR: The results of 60 months of observation of the hard X-ray sky with Swift/BAT have been presented in this paper, where the authors used the BAT dataset to refine the determination of the LogN-LogS of active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected above 10 keV to a ~10% precision.
Journal ArticleDOI

Massive stars formed in atomic hydrogen reservoirs: H I observations of gamma-ray burst host galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the first 21 cm line observations of GRB host galaxies, using the AustraliaTelescope Compact Array, implying high levels of atomic hydrogen (H i), which suggests that the connection between atomic gas and star formation is stronger than previously thought.
