Abstract

Sources of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are detected at a high redshift z, testifying to their cosmological origin and thus requiring allowance for cosmological dilation in analyzing the distribution of their durations. New parameter Rt, the ratio of the arrival time of a maximum-energy photon to the duration of a burst, is introduced. The new parameter allows cosmological dilation to be ignored and at least two groups of long GRBs to be distinguished. Differences in the dynamics of the formation of high-energy γ-radiation for these groups demonstrates the inhomogeneity of their source populations.
