X-ray afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts |
|
Abstract |
The Swift X-ray Telescope has measured X-ray afterglows of more than 360 Gamma-Ray Bursts, with many of these observations beginning a few minutes after the burst is detected. I will give an overview of key findings from the first 4 1/2 years of the Swift mission, including the discovery and interpretation of X-ray flares, presence and detection of jet breaks, and some light curves of special interest. |
