TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the most comprehensive IPN localization data on these events, and used triangulation to localize the short-duration gamma-ray bursts with extended emission.
Journal ArticleDOI
The prompt x-ray emission of grb 011211: possible evidence of a transient absorption feature
F. Frontera,Lorenzo Amati,J. J. M. in 't Zand,Davide Lazzati,Arieh Königl,M. Vietri,Enrico Costa,M. Feroci,C. Guidorzi,Enrico Montanari,Mauro Orlandini,Elena Pian,L. Piro +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, a transient absorption feature at 6.9 + 0.6 − 0.5 keV during the rise of the primary event was found and the significance of the feature was derived with non parametric tests and numerical simulations, finding a chance probability which ranges from 3 × 10 −3 down to 4 × 10−4.
Journal ArticleDOI
A BeppoSAX study of the Galactic Z-source GX 340+0
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of a BeppoSAX broad band (0.1-200 keV) observation of the Z-source GX-340+0.5 kT BB with seed photons temperature ∼ 1 keV and electron temperature ∼ 3 keV.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cumulative search for hard X/$\gamma$-Ray emission associated with fast radio bursts in Fermi/GBM data
R. Martone,C. Guidorzi,R. Margutti,Luciano Nicastro,Lorenzo Amati,F. Frontera,M. Marongiu,Mauro Orlandini,E. Virgilli +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an approach like that used in machine learning methodologies to accurately model the highly-variable Fermi/GBM instrumental background on a time interval comparable to the duration of the proposed fast radio burst counterpart of FRB 131104.
Journal ArticleDOI
The X-ray afterglow of GRB980519
Luciano Nicastro,Lorenzo Amati,L. A. Antonelli,E. Costa,G. Cusumano,M. Feroci,F. Frontera,E. Palazzi,Elena Pian,L. Piro +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, an X-ray TOO observation performed by the BeppoSAX Narrow Field Instruments, starting about 9.5 hours after the high energy event, revealed Xray afterglow emission in the 0.1-10 keV energy range.
