We report the earliest detection of an extremely bright optical afterglow of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 030329 using a 30cm-telescope at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo, JAPAN). Our observation started 67 minutes after the burst, and continued for succeeding two nights until the afterglow faded below the sensitivity limit of the telescope (approximately 18 mag). Combining our data with thos...

In this paper we present some preliminary result on the spectral and timing analysis of the X-ray pulsed emission from the 16 ms pulsar PSR J0537−6910 in the energy range 0.1–30 keV, based on archival BeppoSAX and RossiXTE observations. This pulsar, discovered by Marshall et al. [1] in the LMC field with RXTE, is the fastest spinning pulsar associated with a supernova remnant. It is characteriz...

The launch of the Beppo-Sax satellite gave a unique opportunity to investigate gamma ray bursts (GRB) in different spectral regions. The large diversity of the afterglow behavior creates additional problems for the cosmological model with a fireball. Formation of the afterglow giving the observed diversity of properties is suggested in the Galactic neutron star model of GRBs. It is based on the...

After nearly two years of quiescence, the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1900+14 again became burst-active on April 18 2001, when it emitted a large flare, preceded by few weak and soft short bursts. After having detected the X and gamma prompt emission of the flare, BeppoSAX pointed its narrow field X-ray telescopes to the source in less than 8 hours. In this paper we present an analysis of the d...

Strong, delayed X-ray line emission is detected in the afterglow of GRB 030227, appearing near the end of the XMM-Newton observation, nearly twenty hours after the burst. The observed flux in the lines, not simply the equivalent width, sharply increases from an undetectable level (< 1.7 × 10 −14 erg cm −2 s −1 , 3σ) to 4.1 +0.9 −1.0 × 10 −14 erg cm −2 s −1 in the final 9.7 ks. The line emission...
