| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed the system to send accurate and rapid alerts of transients observed by MAXI. It enables us to follow-up the transients by Swift satellite. Some of the MAXI transients were accompanied by afterglows like normal gamma-ray bursts. However, there are phenomenon of various kinds including transients in our galaxy.
We published the paper of MAXI gamma-ray bursts including X-ray flashes.
