The Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) on the SWIFT Midex Mission
- S. Barthelmy, Louis M. Barbier, +12 authors J. Tueller
- Physics
- 1 May 2004
Abstracthe burst alert telescope (BAT) is one of three instruments on the
Swift MIDEX spacecraft to study gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The BAT first detects the GRB and localizes the burst direction to… Expand
GRB 090423 at a redshift of z ≈ 8.1
- R. Salvaterra, M. D. Valle, +42 authors V. Testa
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 8 June 2009
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced by rare types of massive stellar explosion. Their rapidly fading afterglows are often bright enough at optical wavelengths that they are detectable at… Expand
Gamma-Ray Burst Peak Duration as a Function of Energy
- E. Fenimore, J. J. Zand, J. Norris, J. T. Bonnell, R. Nemiroff
- Physics
- 21 April 1995
Gamma-ray burst time histories often consist of many peaks. These peaks tend to be narrower at higher energy. If gamma-ray bursts are cosmological, the energy dependence of gamma-ray burst timescales… Expand
A short γ-ray burst apparently associated with an elliptical galaxy at redshift z = 0.225
- N. Gehrels, C. Sarazin, +74 authors R. Wijers
- Physics
- Nature
- 31 May 2005
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) come in two classes: long (> 2 s), soft-spectrum bursts and short, hard events. Most progress has been made on understanding the long GRBs, which are typically observed at… Expand
A giant γ-ray flare from the magnetar SGR 1806–20
- D. Palmer, S. Barthelmy, +25 authors J. Tueller
- Physics
- Nature
- 28 April 2005
Two classes of rotating neutron stars—soft γ-ray repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars—are magnetars, whose X-ray emission is powered by a very strong magnetic field (B ≈ 1015 G). SGRs… Expand
New family of binary arrays for coded aperture imaging.
- S. Gottesman, E. Fenimore
- Computer Science, Medicine
- Applied optics
- 15 October 1989
TLDR
Coded aperture imaging with uniformly redundant arrays.
- E. Fenimore, T. M. Cannon
- Physics, Medicine
- Applied optics
- 1 February 1978
Uniformly redundant arrays (URA) have autocorrelation functions with perfectly flat sidelobes. The URA combines the high-transmission characteristics of the random array with the flat sidelobe… Expand
The 22 Month Swift-BAT All-Sky Hard X-ray Survey
- J. Tueller, W. Baumgartner, +36 authors L. Winter
- Physics
- 18 March 2009
We present the catalog of sources detected in the first 22 months of data from the hard X-ray survey (14-195 keV) conducted with the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) coded mask imager on the Swift… Expand
GLOBAL CHARACTERISTICS OF X-RAY FLASHES AND X-RAY-RICH GAMMA-RAY BURSTS OBSERVED BY HETE-2
- T. Sakamoto, D. Lamb, +35 authors M. Yamauchi
- Physics
- 10 August 2005
We describe and discuss the global properties of 45 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed by HETE-2 during the first 3 years of its mission, focusing on the properties of X-ray flashes (XRFs) and… Expand
