Polarized Emission from Gamma-Ray Burst Jets

Galaxies, 2017
I review how polarization signals have been discussed in the research field of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). I mainly discuss two subjects in which polarimetry enables us to study the nature of relativistic jets.

Swift Pointing and Gravitational-Wave Bursts from Gamma-Ray Burst Events

, 2003
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 ...

X-ray afterglow detection of the short gamma-ray burst 991014 [PDF]

, 2000
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 ...

Present and future gamma-ray burst experiments [PDF]

, 1998
Gamma-ray burst counterpart studies require small, prompt error boxes. Today, there are several missions which can provide them: BeppoSAX, the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer, and the 3rd Interplanetary Network.

A Study of the Gamma-Ray Burst Fundamental Plane [PDF]

, 2016
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

The Temporal Symmetrical and Translational Structure in Gamma-Ray Burst Light Curves

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
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 ...

Exploring the connection between compact object mergers and fast X-ray transients

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The connection between compact object mergers and some extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXRTs) has long been hypothesised but never ultimately established. Aims.

EURO-ASIAN COLLABORATION FOR GAMMA-RAY BURST OPTICAL OBSERVATIONS

Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) very interesting objects in Universe. In the study of gamma-ray burst is very important operative observations with many points in first day and other days after the burst. INTEGRAL, HETE-II and specially SWIFT era is going to leave
