Spectral evolution of Fermi/GBM short gamma-ray bursts
We study the spectral evolution of 13 short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Gamma Burst Monitor onboard Fermi. We study spectra resolved in time at the level of 2– 512 ms in the 8 keV–35 MeV energy range. We find a strong correlation between the observed peak energy Epeak and the flux P within individual short GRBs. The slope of the Epeak ∝ P correlation for individual bursts r...
متن کاملFermi-LAT Observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope observatory is a pair conversion telescope sensitive to gamma-rays over more than four energy decades, between 20 MeV and more than 300 GeV. Acting in synergy with the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) the other instrument onboard the mission the LAT features unprecedented sensitivity for the study of gammaray bursts (GRBs) in te...
متن کاملThe Fermi-gbm X-ray Burst Monitor: Thermonuclear Bursts
Thermonuclear bursts from slowly accreting neutron stars (NSs) have proven difficult to detect, yet they are potential probes of the thermal properties of the neutron star interior. During the first year of a systematic all-sky search for X-ray bursts using the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope we have detected 15 thermonuclear bursts from the NS low-mass ...
متن کاملShort-Hard Gamma-Ray Bursts
Two types of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are observed: short duration hard spectrum GRBs and long duration soft spectrum GRBs. For many years long GRBs were the focus of intense research while the lack of observational data limited the study of short-hard GRBs (SHBs). In 2005 a breakthrough occurred following the first detections of SHB afterglows, longer wavelength emission that follows the burst ...
متن کاملShort-Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) display a bimodal duration distribution, with a separation between the shortand long-duration bursts at about 2 sec. The progenitors of long GRBs have been identified as massive stars based on their association with Type Ic core-collapse supernovae, their exclusive location in starforming galaxies, and their strong correlation with bright ultraviolet regions within their...
