GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst
We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image, and Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer Mission.

The origin of the optical flashes: The case study of GRB 080319B and GRB 130427A [PDF]
Correlations between optical flashes and gamma-ray emissions in gamma-ray bursts have been searched in order to clarify the question whether these emissions occur at internal and/or external shocks.

A FUNDAMENTAL PLANE FOR LONG GAMMA-RAY BURSTS WITH X-RAY PLATEAUS [PDF]
A class of long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) presenting light curves with an extended plateau phase in their X-ray afterglows obeys a correlation between the rest-frame end-time of the plateau, Ta, and its corresponding X-ray luminosity, La, (Dainotti et al).

Highly luminous supernovae associated with gamma-ray bursts [PDF]
Context. GRB 111209A, one of the longest gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) ever observed, is linked to SN 2011kl, which is the most luminous GRB supernova (SN) detected so far.

Model Constraints Based on the IceCube Neutrino Nondetection of GRB 221009A
GRB 221009A is a bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) with isotropic energy larger than 10 ^54 erg. Its fairly low redshift makes it a promising candidate for high-energy neutrino detection.

The physics of gamma-ray bursts [PDF]
Gamma-ray bursts (GRB's), short and intense pulses of low-energy $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ rays, have fascinated astronomers and astrophysicists since their unexpected discovery in the late sixties.

Bulk Lorentz factors of Gamma-Ray Bursts [PDF]
Knowledge of the bulk Lorentz factor $\Gamma_{0}$ of GRBs allows us to compute their comoving frame properties shedding light on their physics. Upon collisions with the circumburst matter, the fireball of a GRB starts to decelerate, producing a peak or a

Nano‐Patterned CuO Nanowire Nanogap Hydrogen Gas Sensor with Voids
Sub‐5‐ppb hydrogen (H2) detection and sub‐10‐s response and recovery times are achieved based on nano‐patterned polycrystalline CuO nanowires nanogap gas sensors with voids using electron‐beam lithography and unique annealing processes. Pre‐H2 annealing, void‐generating oxidation, and downscaled nanogap electrodes are key to improving the sensing ...

A burst in a wind bubble and the impact on baryonic ejecta: high-energy gamma-ray flashes and afterglows from fast radio bursts and pulsar-driven supernova remnants [PDF]
Tenuous wind bubbles, which are formed by the spin-down activity of central compact remnants, are relevant in some models of fast radio bursts (FRBs) and super-luminous supernovae.
