Observations of X-ray Flares from Gamma Ray Bursts
Swift-XRT observations of the X-ray emission from gamma ray bursts (GRBs) and during the GRB afterglow have led to many new results during the past two years. One of these exciting results is that ∼1/3− 1/2 of GRBs contain detectable X-ray flares. The mean fluence of the X-ray flares is ∼10× less than that of the initial prompt emission, but in some cases the flare is as energetic as the prompt...
متن کاملHigh Energy Gamma-ray Emission from Blazars: Egret Observations
We will present a summary of the observations of blazars by the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO). EGRET has detected high energy γray emission at energies greater than 100 MeV from more that 50 blazars. These sources show inferred isotropic luminosities as large as 3× 10 ergs s. One of the most remarkable characteristics of the EGRET o...
متن کاملMicrowave and Hard X-ray Observations of Footpoint Emission from Solar Flares
We investigate radio and X-ray imaging data for two solar ares in order to test the idea that asymmetric precipitation of nonthermal electrons at the two ends of a magnetic loop is consistent with the magnetic mirroring explanation. The events we present were observed in May 1993 by the HXT and SXT X-ray telescopes on the Yohkoh spacecraft, and by the Nobeyama 17 GHz radioheliograph. The hard X...
متن کاملAstrophysical explosions: from solar flares to cosmic gamma-ray bursts
Astrophysical explosions result from the release of magnetic, gravitational or thermonuclear energy on dynamical time scales, typically the sound-crossing time for the system. These explosions include solar and stellar flares, eruptive phenomena in accretion discs, thermonuclear combustion on the surfaces of white dwarfs and neutron stars, violent magnetic reconnection in neutron stars, thermon...
