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.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Large Area Telescope on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope Mission

W. B. Atwood, +292 more
TL;DR: The Large Area Telescope (Fermi/LAT) as mentioned in this paper is the primary instrument on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, which is an imaging, wide field-of-view, high-energy gamma-ray telescope, covering the energy range from below 20 MeV to more than 300 GeV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fermi Large Area Telescope Second Source Catalog

P. L. Nolan, +293 more
TL;DR: The second Fermi-LAT catalog (2FGL) as mentioned in this paper includes source location regions, defined in terms of elliptical fits to the 95% confidence regions and spectral fits in terms either power-law, exponentially cutoff power law, or log-normal forms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fermi large area telescope first source catalog

A. A. Abdo, +288 more
TL;DR: The first Fermi-LAT catalog (1FGL) as mentioned in this paper contains 1451 sources detected and characterized in the 100 MeV to 100 GeV range, and the threshold likelihood Test Statistic is 25, corresponding to a significance of just over 4 sigma.
Journal ArticleDOI

The burst alert telescope (BAT) on the Swift MIDEX mission

TL;DR: The burst alert telescope (BAT) as discussed by the authors is one of three instruments on the Swift MIDEX spacecraft to study gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and it detects the GRB and localizes the burst direction to an accuracy of 1-4 arcmin within 20 s after the start of the event.
