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.

ASCA Observations of Seyfert 1 Galaxies. II. Relativistic Iron Kα Emission
K. Nandra,Ian M. George,Ian M. George,Richard Mushotzky,T. J. Turner,T. J. Turner,Tahir Yaqoob,Tahir Yaqoob +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present evidence for widespread relativistic effects in the central regions of active galactic nuclei, showing that a strong red wing is indicative of gravitational redshifts close to a central black hole, and accretion disk models provide an excellent description of the data.

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.
