This work represents a discussion of three distinct areas: detailed analyses of recent data on bursts, searches for burst counterparts, and descriptions of new observational initiatives in the field. It deals with the debate over the search for cosmological signatures from gamma-ray bursts and the test for consistency in different cosmological ...
The foremost observers and theorists discuss the latest developments in the astrophysics of neutron stars, black holes and their interaction in the universe. Often found in compact, interacting binaries, these objects exhibit broadly similar behaviour. The determination of observational signatures that distinguish between these two types of ...
This was a technical symposium for astrophysicists working on gamma-ray bursts. It included discussions on the latest theoretical and experimental research on this topic, as well as plans for the next generation of orbiting instrumentation. The proceedings will be useful for specialists in the area of gamma-ray burst astronomy.
