Statistical Properties of Gamma-Ray Burst Polarization (2008)
Toma, Kenji, Sakamoto, Takanori, Zhang, Bing, Hill, Joanne E., McConnell, Mark L., Bloser, Peter F., ...
The emission mechanism and the origin and structure of magnetic fields in gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets are among the most important open questions concerning the nature of the central engine of GRBs....
Readout and Performance of Thick CZT Strip Detectors with Orthogonal Coplanar Anodes (2008)
John R. Macri, Burçin Dönmez, Louis-andre Hamel, Manuel Julien, Mickel Mcclish, Mark L. Mcconnell, ...
Abstract-- We report progress in the study of CZT strip detectors featuring orthogonal coplanar anode contacts. The work includes laboratory and simulation studies aimed at optimizing and developing...
The Locations Of Gamma-Ray Bursts Measured By Comptel (2007)
Marc Kippen, James M. Ryan, Alanna Connors, Dieter H. Hartmann, Christoph Winkler, Lucien Kuiper, ...
The COMPTEL instrument on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory is used to measure the locations of gamma-ray bursts through direct imaging of MeV photons. In a comprehensive search, we have detected and...
