Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2000
▪ Abstract  The discovery of counterparts in X-ray and optical to radio wavelengths has revolutionized the study of γ-ray bursts, until recently the most enigmatic of astrophysical phenomena. We now know that γ-ray bursts are the biggest explosions in nature, caused by the ejection of ultrarelativistic matter from a powerful energy source and its ...

Early optical observations of seven gamma-ray bursts in comparison to their gamma X-ray characteristics in the MSU MASTER Global Robotic Telescopes Net

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019
Seven gamma-ray bursts – GRB 130907A, GRB 140311B, GRB 140129B, GRB 160227A, GRB 120404A, GRB 110801A, and GRB 120811C were observed by the MSU MASTER (Mobile Astronomical System of TElescope Robots) Global Network.

COMPTEL observations of cosmic gamma‐ray bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The imaging γ‐ray telescope COMPTEL on board NASA’s Compton Gamma‐Ray Observatory (GRO) has observed many cosmic gamma‐ray bursts during the early mission phase of GRO. COMPTEL records time‐resolved burst spectra over 0.1 MeV to 10 MeV energies, and, for

Prompt Emission Polarimetry of Gamma-Ray Bursts with the AstroSat CZT Imager [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2017
X-ray and gamma-ray polarization measurements of the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to be extremely important for testing various models of GRBs.

Black Hole Accretion in Gamma Ray Bursts

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
We study the structure and evolution of the hyperaccreting disks and outflows in the gamma ray bursts central engines. The torus around a stellar mass black hole is composed of free nucleons, Helium, electron-positron pairs, and is cooled by neutrino ...

Relativistic Conic Beams and Spatial Distribution of Gamma-Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We study the statistics of gamma-ray bursts, assuming that gamma-ray bursts are cosmological and they are beamed in the form of a conical jet with a large bulk Lorentz factor $\sim 100$.

Jets in a Gamma-Ray Burst during Its Prompt Emission: Evolution of the Lorentz Factor

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Knowledge about the Lorentz factor and its evolution of relativistic jets in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is crucial to understand their physics. An exact value of the bulk Lorentz factor can be estimated based on a high-energy spectral cutoff, which may ...

Cosmic Ray and Neutrino Emission from Gamma-Ray Bursts with a Nuclear Cascade [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We discuss neutrino and cosmic-ray emission from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) with the injection of nuclei, where we take into account that a nuclear cascade from photo-disintegration can fully develop in the source.

LOCALIZATION OF GAMMA-RAY BURSTS USING THE FERMI GAMMA-RAY BURST MONITOR [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2015
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has detected over 1400 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) since it began science operations in July, 2008. We use a subset of over 300 GRBs localized by instruments such as Swift, the Fermi Large Area Telescope, INTEGRAL, and MAXI, or through triangulations from the InterPlanetary Network (IPN), to analyze the accuracy of ...
