Intrinsic spectra and energetics of BeppoSAX Gamma-Ray Bursts with known redshifts
- L. Amati, F. Frontera, +13 authors P. Soffitta
- Physics
- 15 May 2002
We present the main results of a study of spectral and energetics properties of twelve gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with redshift estimates. All GRBs in our sample were detected by BeppoSAX in a broad… Expand
Discovery of an X-ray afterglow associated with the γ-ray burst of 28 February 1997
- E. Costa, F. Frontera, +23 authors R. C. Butler
- Physics
- Nature
- 19 June 1997
Establishing the nature of γ-ray bursts is one of the greatest challenges in high-energy astrophysics. The distribution of these bursts is isotropic across the sky, but inhomogeneous in space, with a… Expand
The afterglow, redshift and extreme energetics of the γ-ray burst of 23 January 1999
- S. Kulkarni, S. Djorgovski, +26 authors E. Costa
- Physics
- Nature
- 1 April 1999
Long-lived emission, known as afterglow, has now been detected from about a dozen γ-ray bursts. Distance determinations place the bursts at cosmological distances, with redshifts, z, ranging from ∼1… Expand
The afterglow, the redshift, and the extreme energetics of the gamma-ray burst 990123
- S. Kulkarni, S. Djorgovski, +26 authors E. Costa
- Physics
- 19 February 1999
Afterglow, or long-lived emission, has now been detected from about a dozen well-positioned gamma-ray bursts. Distance determinations made by measuring optical emission lines from the host galaxy, or… Expand
Discovery of Powerful Gamma-Ray Flares from the Crab Nebula
- M. Tavani, A. Bulgarelli, +65 authors G. Bignami
- Physics, Medicine
- Science
- 12 January 2011
Gamma-ray observations of the Crab Nebula by two different space telescopes challenge particle acceleration theory. The well-known Crab Nebula is at the center of the SN1054 supernova remnant. It… Expand
Discovery of the X-Ray Afterglow of the Gamma-Ray Burst of February 28 1997
- E. Costa, F. Frontera, +23 authors R. C. Butler
- Physics, Materials Science
- 6 June 1997
The invention is a three-piece contact assembly for an electrical connector. The contact assembly is characterized by an inner sleeve (10) captivated between a forward outer sleeve (20) and a rear… Expand
Neutral Pion Emission from Accelerated Protons in the Supernova Remnant W44
- A. Giuliani, M. Cardillo, +41 authors G. Bignami
- Physics
- 21 November 2011
We present the AGILE gamma-ray observations in the energy range 50 MeV-10 GeV of the supernova remnant (SNR) W44, one of the most interesting systems for studying cosmic-ray production. W44 is an… Expand
The Cosmic X-Ray Background and the Population of the Most Heavily Obscured AGNs
- F. Frontera, M. Orlandini, +13 authors Inafiasf Roma
- Physics
- 7 November 2006
We report on an accurate measurement of the CXB in the 15-50 keV range performed with the Phoswich Detection System (PDS) instrument aboard the BeppoSAX satellite. We establish that the most likely… Expand
The Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog Obtained with the Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor Aboard BeppoSAX
- F. Frontera, C. Guidorzi, +11 authors M. Orlandini
- Physics
- 30 September 2008
We report on the catalog of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected with the Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor aboard the BeppoSAX satellite. It includes 1082 GRBs with 40-700 keV fluences in the range from 1.3 ×… Expand
