TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the burst properties in relation to the persistent emission of the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 0614+091 and find bursts with a wide variety of characteristics in serendipitous wide-field X-r ay observations by the WATCH on EURECA, the ASM on RXTE, the WFCs on BeppoSAX, the FREGATE on HETE-2, the IBIS/ISGRI on INTEGRAL, and the BAT on Swift, as well as pointed observations with the

TL;DR: In this article, the MARSIS ionospheric sounder and the charged particle instrument package ASPERA-3 are experiments on board the Mars Express spacecraft, and joint observations have shown that these enhancements are not associated with precipitation of charged particles above a few hundred electron volts.

TL;DR: The Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) aboard the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) provided a record of the low-energy gamma-ray sky (approx. 20-1000 keV) between 1991 April and 2000 May (9.1 yr) as mentioned in this paper.

Model of anomalous electron heating in the E region: 1. Basic theory
Ya. S. Dimant,G. M. Milikh +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical model of anomalous heating of polar electrojets was proposed based on heuristic assumptions on nonlinearly saturated turbulence and equations of the electron and ion energy budget.

On the origin of narrow non‐ion‐acoustic coherent radar spectra in the high‐latitude E region
J.-P. St.-Maurice,P. Prikryl,Donald Danskin,A. M. Hamza,George J. Sofko,James A. Koehler,A. V. Kustov,J. Chen +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that electron density gradients with scale lengths as small as 100 m are at the origin of a large fraction of these narrow spectra near 50 MHz.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of an all-sky survey carried out at high X-ray energies (13-180 keV) from August 1977 until January 1979 using data obtained with the UCSD/MIT Hard X-Ray and Low-Energy Gamma-Ray Instrument on the HEAO 1 satellite are reported.

Gamma-burst studies using long-duration balloon flights in the Arctic
TL;DR: In this article, a new detector for accurate localization of the cosmic gamma-burst sources is presented, which is intended for satellite applications, but balloon flights will be used in the development phase.

An all sky study of fast X-ray transients
TL;DR: In the HEAO 1 A-2 survey of fast X-ray transients, a search of 2 to 20 keV scanning data was made for brief increases in flux, greater than 4 millicrabs, on timescales approximately 1 to 10 to 4th s above a 12-hour average as mentioned in this paper.
