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.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the detection of bright optical emission from GRB990123 while the burst was still in progress, and the redshift of this burst, z ≈ 1.6, implies a peak optical luminosity of 5× 1049 −1.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the detection of a long (380's) giant flare from SGR 1806-20, which was much more luminous than any previous transient event observed in our Galaxy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the observation of a particularly energetic burst with a duration of 90 minutes, which includes the detection of an 18-GeV photon, and the extended nature of this burst holds out the hope that there will be opportunities for telescopes operating at other wavelengths to detect a GRB source while it is still active, thus providing further constraints on the source's identity and properties.
