Short Gamma-Ray Bursts Are Different
We analyze BATSE time-tagged event (TTE) data for short gamma-ray bursts (T 90 duration < 2.6 s), studying...
-
Gamma-Ray Bursts
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are short and intense bursts of ∼100 keV−1 MeV photons, usually followed by long-lasting decaying afterglow emission in a...
-
Course 6: Gamma-Ray Bursts
This lecture is an introduction to the study of gamma-ray bursts. Observations of the burst and its afterglow are first reviewed, with the...
-
A Gamma-Ray Bursts’ Fluence-Duration Correlation
We present an analysis indicating that there is a correlation between the fluences and the durations of gamma-ray bursts, and provide arguments that...
-
Spectral Properties of Short Gamma-Ray Bursts
The distribution of GRB durations is bimodal, but there is little additional evidence to support the division of GRBs into short and long classes....
-
Sources of Gamma-Ray Bursts
A serendipitous discovery of highly intense and short-lived bursts of gamma rays was made by instruments on satellites launched in the late 1960s for...
-
Non-isotropic Angular Distribution for Very Short-Time Gamma-Ray Bursts?
We analyse the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with time duration (T90) less than 100 ms from the BATSE Catalogue. The study of the angular location of these...

Merging and Strip** Regimes in Close Pairs of Relativistic Stars: Prospects for Models of Short Gamma-Ray Bursts
We consider the current status of the binary neutron star strip** model to explain short gamma-ray bursts. After the historical joint detection of...

High-Energy Particles from $\gamma$ -Ray Bursts
The widely accepted interpretation of the phenomenology of $\gamma$...

Effects of Free Neutrons on Gamma-Ray Bursts
We consider a general case of nucleon (neutrons + protons) - loaded fireballs. In our analysis of the relative motion of neutrons and protons in the...
-
Some Recent, Interesting Observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts
I review some of the observations of time histories, energy spectra, and the statisticalprop erties of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) which have been made...
-
Gammaless gamma-ray bursts?
One of the possible resolutions of the compactness problem in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is by invoking the Lorentz factors associated with the...
-
Probing the Isotropy in the Sky Distribution of the Gamma-Ray Bursts
The statisticaltests - done by the authors - are surveyed, which verify the null-hypothesis of the intrinsic randomness in the angular distribution...
-
Multiscale Statistical Methods and the Angular Distribution of Gamma-Ray Bursts
The spherical variants of multiscale methods - Voronoi tesselation (VT), minimalspanning tree (MST), and multifractal(MFR) analysis - are used to...

Gamma-Ray Bursts
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are short and intense bursts of ∼100 keV−1 MeV photons, usually followed by long-lasting decaying afterglow emission in a...

Gamma-Ray Bursts as Probes for Quantum Gravity
Gamma ray bursts (GRBs) are short and intense pulses of γ-rays arriving from random directions in the sky. Several years ago Amelino-Camelia et al....
-
Mining Gamma-Ray Burst Data
Gamma-ray bursts provide what is probably one of the messiest of all astrophysical data sets. Burst class properties are indistinct, as overlap**...
-
Gamma-Ray Bursts
As a result of the mutual distrust between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War years, the former began launching a series of...

Testing the Amati and Yonetoku correlations for short gamma-ray bursts
We use a sample of Swift and Fermi short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) to test the validity of the Amati and Yonetoku correlations, which were originally...

Modeling the late-time merger ejecta emission in short gamma ray bursts
The short gamma ray bursts (GRBs) are the aftermath of the merger of binary compact objects (neutron star–neutron star or neutron star–black hole...
