Gamma-ray Bursts: Prospects for GLAST: Stockholm Symposium on GRBsMagnus Axelsson, Felix Ryde This volume contains the proceedings from a symposium on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) held in Stockholm, Sweden, in September 2006. All papers have been peer reviewed. The gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST) is an international mission dedicated to observations of high-energy gamma-rays and is planned to be launched by the end of 2007. |
