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
Swift BAT Survey of AGNs
- J. Tueller, R. Mushotzky, +5 authors L. Winter
- Physics
- 26 November 2007
We present the results of the analysis of the first 9 months of data of the Swift BAT survey of AGNs in the 14-195 keV band. Using archival X-ray data or follow-up Swift XRT observations, we have… 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
Suzaku observations of active galactic nuclei detected in the SWIFT BAT survey: Discovery of a "new type" of buried supermassive black holes
We present the Suzaku broadband observations of two AGNs detected by the Swift BAT hard X-ray (>15 keV) survey that did not have previous X-ray data, SWIFT J0601.9-8636 and SWIFT J0138.6-4001. The… Expand
A link between prompt optical and prompt γ-ray emission in γ-ray bursts
- W. T. Vestrand, P. Wozniak, +20 authors J. Tueller
- Physics
- Nature
- 23 March 2005
The prompt optical emission that arrives with the γ-rays from a cosmic γ-ray burst (GRB) is a signature of the engine powering the burst, the properties of the ultra-relativistic ejecta of the… Expand
OSSE Mapping of Galactic 511 keV Positron Annihilation Line Emission
- W. Purcell, L. X. Cheng, +7 authors J. Tueller
- Physics
- 20 December 1997
The Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSE) observations of the Galactic plane and Galactic center region have been combined with scanning observations by the Transient Gamma-Ray… Expand
Correlations of prompt and afterglow emission in Swift long and short gamma-ray bursts
- N. Gehrels, S. Barthelmy, +12 authors B. Zhang

SUZAKU VIEW OF THE SWIFT/BAT ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI. I. SPECTRAL ANALYSIS OF SIX ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI AND EVIDENCE FOR TWO TYPES OF OBSCURED POPULATION
- S. Eguchi, Y. Ueda, Y. Terashima, R. Mushotzky, J. Tueller
- Physics
- 19 February 2009
We present a systematic spectral analysis with Suzaku of six active galactic nuclei (AGNs) detected in the Swift/BAT hard X-ray (15-200 keV) survey: Swift J0138.6–4001, J0255.2–0011, J0350.1–5019,… Expand
An infrared flash contemporaneous with the γ-rays of GRB 041219a
- C. Blake, J. Bloom, +25 authors J. Tueller
- Physics
- Nature
- 12 May 2005
The explosion that results in a cosmic γ-ray burst (GRB) is thought to produce emission from two physical processes: the central engine gives rise to the high-energy emission of the burst through… Expand
