Probing the nature of short swift bursts via deep INTEGRAL monitoring of GRB 050925

Sakamoto, T.; Gehrels, N.; Cummings, J. R. +10 more

We present results from Swift, XMM-Newton, and deep INTEGRAL monitoring in the region of GRB 050925. This short Swift burst is a candidate for a newly discovered soft gamma-ray repeater (SGR) with the following observational burst properties: (1) galactic plane (b = -0.1°) localization, (2) 150 ms duration, and (3) a blackbody rather than a simple…
