    A search for fast radio burst-like emission from Fermi gamma-ray bursts

    We report the results of the rapid follow-up observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the Fermi satellite to search for associated fast radio bursts. The observations were conducted with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder at frequencies from 1.2-1.4 GHz. A set of 20 bursts, of which four were short GRBs, were followed up with a typical latency of about one minute, for a duration of up to 11 hours after the burst. The data was searched using 4096 dispersion measure trials up to a maximum dispersion measure of 3763 pc cm3^{-3}, and for pulse widths ww over a range of duration from 1.256 to 40.48 ms. No associated pulsed radio emission was observed above 26Jyms(w/1ms)1/226 {\rm Jy ms} (w/1 {\rm ms})^{-1/2} for any of the 20 GRBs.Comment: Accepted for publication in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society Main Journa

    Neutron charge form factor at large q2q^2

    Full text link
    The neutron charge form factor GEn(q)G_{En}(q) is determined from an analysis of the deuteron quadrupole form factor FC2F_{C2} data. Recent calculations, based on a variety of different model interactions and currents, indicate that the contributions associated with the uncertain two-body operators of shorter range are relatively small for FC2F_{C2}, even at large momentum transfer qq. Hence, GEn(q)G_{En}(q) can be extracted from FC2F_{C2} at large q2q^2 without undue systematic uncertainties from theory.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure

    Elastic electron deuteron scattering with consistent meson exchange and relativistic contributions of leading order

    Get PDF
    The influence of relativistic contributions to elastic electron deuteron scattering is studied systematically at low and intermediate momentum transfers (Q230Q^2\leq 30 fm2^{-2}). In a (p/M)(p/M)-expansion, all leading order relativistic π\pi-exchange contributions consistent with the Bonn OBEPQ models are included. In addition, static heavy meson exchange currents including boost terms and lowest order ρπγ\rho\pi\gamma-currents are considered. Sizeable effects from the various relativistic two-body contributions, mainly from π\pi-exchange, have been found in form factors, structure functions and the tensor polarization T20T_{20}. Furthermore, static properties, viz. magnetic dipole and charge quadrupole moments and the mean square charge radius are evaluated.Comment: 15 pages Latex including 5 figures, final version accepted for publication in Phys.Rev.C Details of changes: (i) The notation of the curves in Figs. 1 and 2 have been clarified with respect to left and right panels. (ii) In Figs. 3 and 4 an experimental point for T_20 has been added and a corresponding reference [48] (iii) At the end of the text we have added a paragraph concerning the quality of the Bonn OBEPQ potential
