Swift Pointing and Gravitational-Wave Bursts from Gamma-Ray Burst Events
The currently accepted model for gamma-ray burst phenomena involves the violent formation of a rapidly rotating solar-mass black hole. Gravitational waves should be associated with the black-hole formation, and their detection would permit this model to ...

Afterglows as Diagnostics of Gamma Ray Burst Beaming [PDF]
If gamma ray bursts are highly collimated, radiating into only a small fraction of the sky, the energy requirements of each event may be reduced by several (up to 4 - 6) orders of magnitude, and the event rate increased correspondingly. The large Lorentz

The Fermi GBM gamma-ray burst time-resolved spectral catalog: brightest bursts in the first four years [PDF]
We aim to obtain high-quality time-resolved spectral fits of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed by the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope.

The Temporal Symmetrical and Translational Structure in Gamma-Ray Burst Light Curves
Tremendous information is hidden in the light curve of a gamma-ray burst (GRB). Based on Compton Gamma Ray Observatory/Burst And Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) data, Hakkila found a majority of GRBs can be characterized by a smooth, single-peaked ...

Stripping Model for Short Gamma-Ray Bursts in Neutron Star Mergers
We overview the current status of the stripping model for short gamma-ray bursts. After the historical joint detection of the gravitational wave event GW170817 and the accompanying gamma-ray burst GRB170817A, the relation between short gamma-ray bursts ...

X-ray afterglow detection of the short gamma-ray burst 991014 [PDF]
GRB 991014 is one of the shortest gamma-ray bursts detected so far with the Wide Field Cameras aboard BeppoSAX, both in gamma-rays and X-rays. The duration is 9.6 sec in 2-28 keV and 3.2 sec in 40 to 700 keV (as measured between the times when 5 and 95 ...

Revisiting the Parameter Space of Binary Neutron Star Merger Event GW170817
Since the gravitational wave event GW170817 and gamma-ray burst GW170817A, there have been numerous studies constraining the burst properties through analysis of the afterglow light curves.

A Study of the Gamma-Ray Burst Fundamental Plane [PDF]
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with a plateau phase in their X-ray afterglows obey a 3D relation, between the rest-frame time at the end of the plateau, Ta, its corresponding X-ray luminosity, La, and the peak luminosity in the prompt emission, Lpeak. This
