C. Pagani,C. Pagani,D. C. Morris,Shiho Kobayashi,T. Sakamoto,Abraham D. Falcone,Alberto Moretti,K. L. Page,David N. Burrows,Dirk Grupe,A. Retter,Judith Racusin,J. A. Kennea,Sergio Campana,P.

Nousek,Neil Gehrels +26 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present observations of GRB 050607, the fourth case of a GRB discovered by Swift with flares superimposed on the overall fading X-ray afterglow.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Deep Chandra Observation of the Oxygen-Rich Supernova Remnant 0540-69.3 in the Large Magellanic Cloud
TL;DR: In this article, a spatially resolved X-ray spectral analysis of the "oxygen-rich" supernova remnant (SNR) 0540-69.3 in the Large Magellanic Cloud is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swift observations of IBL and LBL objects
Francesco Massaro,Francesco Massaro,Paolo Giommi,Gino Tosti,A. Cassetti,Roberto Nesci,M. Perri,David N. Burrows,N. Gerehls +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a set of observations of eight BL Lac objects of LBL and IBL type performed by the XRT and UVOT detectors onboard the Swift satellite between January 2005 and November 2006 were used to measure the spectral parameters, and particularly the steepness between the UV and the X-ray band, useful for determining the classification of these sources.

Roming,Alan A. Wells,N. E. White,Bing Zhang +32 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors interpret the burst alert telescope and XRT data as a single continuous observation of the prompt emission from a very long gamma-ray burst, which is the most distant cosmic explosion ever observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the final Interplanetary Network localization of this event and its detailed multi-wavelength study with a number of space-based instruments and conclude that the tight collimation of the jet must have been a key ingredient to produce this unusually bright burst.
