Gamma-Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2012
Stellar Explosions Stars that are born with masses greater than eight times that of the Sun end their lives in luminous explosions known as supernovae. Over the past decade, access to improved sky surveys has revealed rare types of supernovae that are much more luminous than any of those that were known before.

GAMMA-RAY BURSTS [PDF]

open access: yesParticles, Strings and Cosmology (PASCOS 99), 2000
Ultra-high-energy, >10^19 eV, cosmic-ray and high energy, ~10^14 eV, neutrino production in GRBs is discussed in the light of recent GRB and cosmic-ray observations. Emphasis is put on model predictions that can be tested with operating and planned cosmic-ray and neutrino detectors, and on the prospects of testing for neutrino properties.

ON GAMMA-RAY BURSTS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Eleventh Marcel Grossmann Meeting, 2008
(Shortened) We show by example how the uncoding of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) offers unprecedented possibilities to foster new knowledge in fundamental physics and in astrophysics. After recalling some of the classic work on vacuum polarization in uniform electric fields by Klein, Sauter, Heisenberg, Euler and Schwinger, we summarize some of the efforts ...

Superlong gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy Letters, 2005
Before the BATSE/GRO launch GRBs seem to be a uniform phenomenon with duration up to about 100 seconds. The BATSE has detected many events longer than 100 s and a few longer than 500s. We performed the off-line scan of the 1024 ms continuous BATSE records and revealed several non-triggered episodes of the BATSE GRB triggers which confidently belong to ...

Revisiting the Spectral Energy Correlations of GRBs with Fermi Data. I. Model-wise Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit a diversity of spectra. Several spectral models (e.g., Band, cutoff power law (CPL), and blackbody) and their hybrid versions (e.g., Band+blackbody) have been widely used to fit the observed GRB spectra.

Optical and Near-infrared Observations of the Distant but Bright “New Year’s Burst” GRB 220101A

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
High-redshift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are useful to probe the early Universe, but only a few candidates have been detected so far. Here, we report the optical and near-infrared observations of the afterglow of a relatively high-redshift event GRB 220101A,

Extending the Search for Muon Neutrinos Coincident with Gamma-Ray Bursts in IceCube Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present an all-sky search for muon neutrinos produced during the prompt γ-ray emission of 1172 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with the IceCube Neutrino Observatory.

A tera–electron volt afterglow from a narrow jet in an extremely bright gamma-ray burst [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2023
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have a tera–electron volt (TeV) afterglow, but the early onset of this has not been observed. We report observations with the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) of the bright GRB 221009A, which ...

Dark gamma-ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2017
Many theories of dark matter (DM) predict that DM particles can be captured by stars via scattering on ordinary matter. They subsequently condense into a DM core close to the center of the star and eventually annihilate. In this work, we trace DM capture and annihilation rates throughout the life of a massive star and show that this evolution ...

GRB 221009A with an Unconventional Precursor: A Typical Two-stage Collapsar Scenario?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
As the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever detected, GRB 221009A may offer a chance that reveals some interesting features that are hidden in those bursts that are not so bright.
