Precursors of short gamma-ray bursts detected by the INTEGRAL observatory

Minaev, Pavel; Pozanenko, Alexei; Molkov, Sergei

We have analyzed the light curves of 527 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) registered by the SPI-ACS, SPI and IBIS/ISGRI experiments of INTEGRAL observatory totally to search for precursors. Both the light curves of each 527 individual burst and the averaged light curve of 372 brightest SPI-ACS bursts have been analyzed. In a few cases, we have found …

VHE observations of binary systems performed with the MAGIC telescopes

Torres, Diego F.; Zanin, Roberta; Casares, Jorge +11 more

The improvement on the Imaging Air Cherenkov Technique (IACT) led to the discovery of a new type of sources that can emit at very high energies: the gamma-ray binaries. Only six systems are part of this exclusive class. We summarize the latest results from the observations performed with the MAGIC telescopes on different systems as the gamma-ray b…
