Galactic population of radio and gamma-ray pulsars
We simulate the characteristics of the Galactic population of radio and gamma-ray pulsars using Monte Carlo techniques. At birth, neutron stars are spatially...
Gamma-ray burst observations with new generation imaging atmospheric Cerenkov Telescopes in the FERMI era
After the launch and successful beginning of operations of the FERMI satellite, the topics related to high-energy observations of gamma-ray bursts have obtained...
GRB 070610: Flares from a peculiar Galactic source
The majority of bright gamma-ray transients that we observe in the sky, are produced by extragalactic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). However, we know that there are...
GRB 080514B: the first high-energy AGILE burst with optical/NIR afterglow
The AGILE gamma-ray burst GRB 080514B was the first detected to have emission at energies above 30 MeV and an optical/NIR afterglow. Here we summarize the main...
GRB 201015A and the nature of low-luminosity soft gamma-ray bursts
GRB 201015A is a peculiarly low luminosity, spectrally soft gamma-ray burst (GRB), with T 90 = 9.8 ± 3.5 s (time interval of detection of 90 per cent of photons...
GRB 221009A: Observations with LST-1 of CTAO and Implications for Structured Jets in Long Gamma-Ray Bursts
GRB 221009A is the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) observed to date. Extensive observations of its afterglow emission across the electromagnetic spectrum were...
GRB 221009A: The B.O.A.T. Burst that Shines in Gamma Rays
We present a complete analysis of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data of GRB 221009A, the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever detected. The burst emission...
GRB 230911A: The First Discovery of a Fermi GRB Optical Counterpart with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO)
We report on the detection of candidate optical counterpart GOTO23akf/AT2023shv to the GRB 230911A with the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO)...
The Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescope was designed for the detection of photon sources >~50 GeV. The measurement of highly-inclined...
