The Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission

Neil Gehrels, +77 more
TL;DR: The Swift mission as discussed by the authors is a multi-wavelength observatory for gamma-ray burst (GRB) astronomy, which is a first-of-its-kind autonomous rapid-slewing satellite for transient astronomy and pioneers the way for future rapid-reaction and multiwavelength missions.

A short γ-ray burst apparently associated with an elliptical galaxy at redshift z = 0.225

Neil Gehrels, +87 more
- 06 Oct 2005 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the detection of the X-ray afterglow from the short burst GRB 050509B and its location on the sky is near a luminous, non-star-forming elliptical galaxy at a redshift of 0.225.
Journal ArticleDOI

Connection between energy-dependent lags and peak luminosity in gamma-ray bursts

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral evolution timescale of pulse structures is anticorrelated with peak luminosity and with quantities that might be expected to reflect the bulk relativistic Lorentz factor, such as spectral hardness ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short Gamma-Ray Bursts with Extended Emission

TL;DR: In this paper, a large BATSE sample with time-tagged event (TTE) data was used to investigate the spectral evolution of short gamma-ray bursts and showed that the initial spike exhibits negligible spectral evolution at energies above approx. 25 keV.
