Neutrino-dominated accretion flows as the central engine of gamma-ray bursts

T Liu, WM Gu, B Zhang - New Astronomy Reviews, 2017 - Elsevier
Neutrino-dominated accretion flows (NDAFs) around rotating stellar-mass black holes (BHs)
are plausible candidates for the central engines of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). NDAFs are …

Properties of relativistic jets in gamma-ray burst afterglows

A Panaitescu, P Kumar - The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 - iopscience.iop.org
We extend our calculation of physical parameters of gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets by
modeling the broadband emission of the afterglows 970508, 980519, 991208, 000926 …

Wind interaction models for gamma-ray burst afterglows: the case for two types of progenitors

RA Chevalier, ZY Li - The Astrophysical Journal, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
Beginning with the γ-ray bursts GRB 970228 and GRB 970508, a standard model for the
interpretation of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows emerged involving synchrotron emission …

[图书][B] Computer science handbook

When you think about how far and fast computer science has progressed in recent years, it's
not hard to conclude that a seven-year old handbook may fall a little short of the kind of …

Polarization of the prompt γ-ray emission from the γ-ray burst of 6 December 2002

W Coburn, SE Boggs - nature, 2003 - nature.com
Observations of the afterglows of γ-ray bursts (GRBs) have revealed that they lie at
cosmological distances, and so correspond to the release of an enormous amount of …

Large scale magnetic fields and their dissipation in GRB fireballs

HC Spruit, F Daigne, G Drenkhahn - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2001 - aanda.org
We consider possible geometries of magnetic fields in GRB outflows, and their evolution
with distance from the source. For magnetically driven outflows, with an assumed ratio of …

Constraining gamma-ray burst initial Lorentz factor with the afterglow onset feature and discovery of a tight Γ0–Eγ, iso correlation

EW Liang, SX Yi, J Zhang, HJ Lü… - The Astrophysical …, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
The onset of gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow is characterized by a smooth bump in the
early afterglow light curve as the GRB fireball is decelerated by the circumburst medium. We …

GRB 990123: reverse and internal shock flashes and late afterglow behaviour

P Mészáros, MJ Rees - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 1999 - academic.oup.com
Abstract The prompt (t≲ 0.16 d) light curve and initial 9th-magnitude optical flash from GRB
990123 can be attributed to a reverse external shock, or possibly to internal shocks. We …
