Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data analyses based on event reconstruction and classification are so far restricted to events of measured energy larger than 100 MeV. We present a new technique to recover the signal from Gamma-Ray Bursts' (GRB) prompt emission between ~30 MeV and 100 MeV, which differs from the standard LAT analysis. Filling the gap between the energy ranges where the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) and LAT operate is important to better constrain the high-energy spectra of GRBs. The LAT Low-Energy (LLE) technique is described, first performance studies are presented, as well as preliminary spectral re-analyses of two Fermi GRBs.

  1. Time lags as proxy of spectral evolution in gamma-ray bursts

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Time lags between energy bands serve as proxies for spectral evolution in GRBs, with positive lags tracing prompt emission softening and negative lags indicating a new delayed high-energy component.
