Cosmology with gamma-ray bursts

open access: yesAstronomical and Astrophysical Transactions, 2022
Gamma-ray bursts constitute one of the most fascinating and relevant phenomena in modern science, with strong implications for several fields of astrophysics, cosmology and fundamental physics. In this short review, I focus on the prospective key-role of GRBs for cosmology. Indeed, the huge luminosity, the redshift distribution extending at least up

Supernovae and Gamma-ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011
AbstractThe properties of the Supernovae discovered in coincidence with long-duration Gamma-ray Bursts and X-Ray Flashes are reviewed, and compared to those of SNe for which GRBs are not observed. The SNe associated with GRBs are of Type Ic, they are brighter than the norm, and show very broad absorption lines in their spectra, indicative of high ...

A Short History of the First 50 Years: From the GRB Prompt Emission and Afterglow Discoveries to the Multimessenger Era

open access: yesUniverse
More than fifty years have elapsed from the first discovery of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with American Vela satellites, and more than twenty-five years from the discovery with the BeppoSAX satellite of the first X-ray afterglow of a GRB.

Are there MeV gamma-ray bursts? [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 1996
It is often stated that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have typical energies of several hundred keV. Is this a real feature of GRBs or is it due to an observational bias? We consider the possibility that bursts of a given bolometric luminosity occur with a hardness distribution $p(H)d \log H \propto H^γd \log H$.

Spectral Hardness and Evolution of Swift Gamma-Ray Bursts and X-Ray Afterglows

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Spectral hardness of gamma-ray bursts can be characterized by either hardness ratio or peak energy, and the inconsistency of these parameters can reflect spectral diversity and complexity.

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 ...

Bubble Formation Control: Fabrication of Centimeter‐Sized Tissue‐Like Constructs by Catalase‐Coated Oxygen‐Releasing Hydrogel

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Oxygen‐releasing hydrogels are widely used to support cell survival in 3D cultures and to promote wound healing. However, incorporating catalase to convert H2O2 into O2 often generates additional oxygen bubbles, leading to material instability which rarely addressed.
