Description
For nearly 30 years, Konus-Wind has been a tireless workhorse for high-energy astrophysics.In this talk, we provide an overview and recent results from Konus-Wind observations of short, long, and ultra-long gamma-ray busts, Galactic and extragalactic magnetars, and solar flares. The recent results include the detection of giant flares from extragalactic magnetars, the famous SGR/FRB 200428 event, and the two brightest gamma-ray bursts in history, GRB 221009A (the BOAT) and GRB 230307A (a long GRB from a compact binary merger).
