Are There MeV Gamma-Ray Bursts?
It is often stated that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have typical energies of several hundred keV, where the typical energy may be characterized by the hardness H , the photon energy corresponding to the peak of νFν . Among the 54 BATSE bursts analyzed by Band et. al. more than half have 100keV < H < 400keV. Is the narrow range of H a real feature of GRBs or is it due to an observational bias? We co...
متن کاملTerrestrial gamma-ray flashes observed up to 20 MeV.
Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) from Earth's upper atmosphere have been detected with the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) satellite. The gamma-ray spectra typically extend up to 10 to 20 megaelectron volts (MeV); a simple bremsstrahlung model suggests that most of the electrons that produce the gamma rays have energies on the order of 20 to 40 MeV. RHESSI dete...
متن کاملUpper limit on the inner radiation belt MeV electron intensity
No instruments in the inner radiation belt are immune from the unforgiving penetration of the highly energetic protons (tens of MeV to GeV). The inner belt proton flux level, however, is relatively stable; thus, for any given instrument, the proton contamination often leads to a certain background noise. Measurements from the Relativistic Electron and Proton Telescope integrated little experime...
متن کاملON THE ORIGIN OF THE MeV GAMMA-RAY BACKGROUND
In this paper, we suggest a new hypothesis for explaining the spectrum of the extragalactic MeV γ-ray background as observed by COMPTEL and SMM. We propose that both the flux level and spectrum can be accounted for as a superposition of non-thermal MeV tails in the spectra of Seyfert galaxies and other AGN. Although present detectors are not sensitive enough to obtain MeV data from individual e...
متن کاملAngular Correlations of the Mev Cosmic Gamma Ray Background
The measured cosmic gamma ray background (CGB) spectrum at MeV energies is in reasonable agreement with the predicted contribution from type Ia supernovae (SNIa). But the characteristic features in the SNIa gamma ray spectrum, weakened by integration over source redshifts, are hard to measure, and additionally the contributions from other sources in the MeV range are uncertain, so that the SNIa...
