We report on prompt and afterglow observations of GRB 000615 detected by BeppoSAX. The study of the high-energy prompt event is presented along with the search for its X-ray and optical afterglow. Spectral fits seem to suggest a temporal…
We discuss observations of the prompt X and gamma-ray emission and X-ray afterglow from GRB981226. This event has the weakest gamma-ray peak flux detected with the Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor. It shows an isolated X-ray precursor and the…
We analyze the BeppoSAX measurements of the prompt and afterglow emission of the gamma-ray burst GRB010222. Among 45 GRBs detected with the Wide Field Cameras on BeppoSAX, the 40-700 keV fluence of (9.3+/-0.3)E-5 erg cm-2 is only surpassed…
GRB970402 is the fourth gamma-ray burst detected by BeppoSAX simultaneously in the Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GRBM) and one of the two Wide Field Cameras (WFCs). A rapid pointing of the BeppoSAX Narrow Field Instruments (NFIs) 8 hours after…
We report on the BeppoSAX data analysis of the afterglow of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 990123, one of the brightest GRBs detected by BeppoSAX. Mainly due to its exceptional brightness, this is the only source for which the Wide Field Cameras…
We discuss the prompt emission of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 990510 and its subsequent X-ray afterglow from 8.0 to 44.3 hrs after the prompt emission, using observations with the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor and Narrow Field Instruments on…
The gamma-ray burst GB970508 was observed simultaneously by the Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GRBM) and one of the X-ray Wide Field Cameras (WFC) aboard BeppoSAX. The latter provided a position within 1.9' radius. A series of follow-up…
Over a total of 20 gamma-ray bursts localized with arcmin accuracies, GRB980519 represents the 13th detected by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras. An X-ray TOO observation performed by the BeppoSAX Narrow Field Instruments, starting about 9.5…
GRB 980329 is the brightest gamma-ray burst detected so far with the Wide Field Cameras aboard BeppoSAX, both in gamma-rays and X-rays. With respect to its fluence (2.6 X 10**-5 erg/s/cm**2 in 50 to 300 keV) it would be in the top 4% of…
GRB 991014 is one of the shortest gamma-ray bursts detected so far with the Wide Field Cameras aboard BeppoSAX, both in gamma-rays and X-rays. The duration is 9.6 sec in 2-28 keV and 3.2 sec in 40 to 700 keV (as measured between the times…
We report on the X-ray observations of the X-ray flash (XRF) which occurred on 2002 April 27, three days before BeppoSAX was switched off. The event was detected with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras but not with the Gamma ray Burst Monitor.…
The BeppoSAX satellite has recently opened a new way towards the solution of the long standing gamma-ray bursts' (GRBs) enigma, providing accurate coordinates few hours after the event thus allowing for multiwavelength follow-up…
We report on the BeppoSAX and multiwavelength data analysis of the afterglow of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 990123. Mainly due to its exceptional brightness, this is the only source for which the Wide Field Cameras have allowed an early detection…
We compare the prompt X-ray (2-10 keV) emission of GRB990510 measured by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras (WFC) during the burst to the X-ray afterglow detected by the BeppoSAX Narrow Field Instruments. A single power-law model for the…
We investigated the spectral evolution in the 2--700 keV energy band of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) detected by the Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GRBM) and localized with the Wide Field Cameras (WFCs) aboard the BeppoSAX satellite before May 1998.…
We report on the prompt X- and gamma-ray observations of GRB990712 with the BeppoSAX Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor and Wide Field Camera No. 2. Due to Sun constraints, we could not perform a follow-up observation with the BeppoSAX Narrow Field…
We report on BeppoSAX simultaneous X- and gamma-ray observations of the bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) 990123. We present the broad-band spectrum of the prompt emission, including optical, X- and gamma-rays, confirming the suggestion that the…
We report the X/gamma-ray spectrum of GRB971214 and of its afterglow. The afterglow was measured few hours after the main event and for an elapsed time of more than two days. The measure of this GRB and afterglow is relevant due to its…
The gamma-ray burst GRB000210 had the highest gamma-ray peak flux of any event localized by BeppoSAX as yet but it did not have a detected optical afterglow. It is therefore one of the events recently classified as dark GRBs or GHOST (GRB…
We present an analysis of the X-ray absorption properties of 6 gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows measured with BeppoSAX. Between 8 hrs and 20 hrs after the initial GRB trigger, individual spectra can be described by a power-law with a photon…
