Polarized Emission from Gamma-Ray Burst Jets

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
I review how polarization signals have been discussed in the research field of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). I mainly discuss two subjects in which polarimetry enables us to study the nature of relativistic jets.

Present and future gamma-ray burst experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Gamma-ray burst counterpart studies require small, prompt error boxes. Today, there are several missions which can provide them: BeppoSAX, the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer, and the 3rd Interplanetary Network.

Energetics of Gamma‐Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2001
We determine the distribution of total energy emitted by gamma-ray bursts for bursts with fluences and distance information. Our core sample consists of eight bursts with BATSE spectra and spectroscopic redshifts. We extend this sample by adding four bursts with BATSE spectra and host galaxy R magnitudes. From these R magnitudes we calculate a redshift

X-ray afterglow detection of the short gamma-ray burst 991014 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
GRB 991014 is one of the shortest gamma-ray bursts detected so far with the Wide Field Cameras aboard BeppoSAX, both in gamma-rays and X-rays. The duration is 9.6 sec in 2-28 keV and 3.2 sec in 40 to 700 keV (as measured between the times when 5 and 95 ...

A Study of the Gamma-Ray Burst Fundamental Plane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with a plateau phase in their X-ray afterglows obey a 3D relation, between the rest-frame time at the end of the plateau, Ta, its corresponding X-ray luminosity, La, and the peak luminosity in the prompt emission, Lpeak. This

Gamma-ray burst models [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2007
I consider various possibilities for making gamma-ray bursts, particularly from close binaries. In addition to the much-studied neutron star+neutron star and black hole+neutron star cases usually considered good candidates for short-duration bursts, there are also other possibilities.

The Temporal Symmetrical and Translational Structure in Gamma-Ray Burst Light Curves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Tremendous information is hidden in the light curve of a gamma-ray burst (GRB). Based on Compton Gamma Ray Observatory/Burst And Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) data, Hakkila found a majority of GRBs can be characterized by a smooth, single-peaked ...

Stripping Model for Short Gamma-Ray Bursts in Neutron Star Mergers

open access: yesParticles, 2022
We overview the current status of the stripping model for short gamma-ray bursts. After the historical joint detection of the gravitational wave event GW170817 and the accompanying gamma-ray burst GRB170817A, the relation between short gamma-ray bursts ...

Swift Pointing and Gravitational-Wave Bursts from Gamma-Ray Burst Events

open access: yes, 2003
The currently accepted model for gamma-ray burst phenomena involves the violent formation of a rapidly rotating solar-mass black hole. Gravitational waves should be associated with the black-hole formation, and their detection would permit this model to ...

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
