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 ...

The Physics of Gamma-Ray Bursts

open access: yes, 2018
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous explosions in the universe, which within seconds release energy comparable to what the Sun releases in its entire lifetime. The field of GRBs has developed rapidly and matured over the past decades.

A long-duration gamma-ray burst with a peculiar origin [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2022
It is generally believed that long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are associated with massive star core collapse1, whereas short-duration GRBs are associated with mergers of compact star binaries2.

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.

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 $p(H)d \log H \propto H^ d \log H$. We model the detection efficiency of BATSE as

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,

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.

Burst Image Restoration and Enhancement [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Modern handheld devices can acquire burst image sequence in a quick succession. However, the individual acquired frames suffer from multiple degradations and are misaligned due to camera shake and object motions. The goal of Burst Image Restoration is to effectively combine complimentary cues across multiple burst frames to generate high-quality ...

AN ALL-SKY SEARCH FOR THREE FLAVORS OF NEUTRINOS FROM GAMMA-RAY BURSTS WITH THE ICECUBE NEUTRINO OBSERVATORY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present the results and methodology of a search for neutrinos produced in the decay of charged pions created in interactions between protons and gamma-rays during the prompt emission of 807 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) over the entire sky.
