We analyze the ultraviolet (UV) and X-ray data of NGC 1275 obtained with {\it Swift}/UVOT, XRT, BAT and {\it Fermi} Large Area Telescope over about 10 years to investigate the origin of the nuclear emission from NGC 1275. We confirm that…

An energetic $\rm \gamma$-ray burst (GRB), GRB 211211A, was observed on 2021 December 11 by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory. Despite its long duration, typically associated with bursts produced by the collapse of massive stars, the…

This article presents a description of a cosmic rays diffusive propagationmodel of a close point-like flash lamp like source and an approximation ofexperimentally observed spectral irregularity with this model. We show thatthis spectral…

The growing observed evidence shows that the long- and short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from massive star core-collapse and the merger of compact stars, respectively. GRB 201221D is a short-duration GRB lasting $\sim 0.1$ s…
