TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the discovery of transient optical emission in the error box of the gamma-ray burst GRB980425, the light curve of which was very different from that of previous optical afterglows associated with Gamma-ray bursts.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the discovery of an optical transient, in the BeppoSAX Wide Field Camera error box of GRB980425, which occurred within about a day of the gamma-ray burst.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the discovery of pulsations in the persistent X-ray flux of SGR1806-20, with a period of 7.47 s and a spindown rate of 2.6 x 10(exp -3) s/yr.

TL;DR: The discovery of the unusual supernova SN1998bw, and its possible association with the γ-ray burst GRB 9804251,2,3, provide new insights into the explosion mechanism of very massive stars and the origin of some classes of gamma-ray bursts.
Journal ArticleDOI
X-ray binaries
TL;DR: In this article, the properties of X-ray binaries are discussed and a compilation of cataclysmic binaries with known or suspected orbital periods is presented, along with a detailed discussion of their properties.
