Testing the Curvature Effect and Internal Origin of Gamma-Ray Burst Prompt Emissions and X-Ray Flares with Swift Data
- E. Liang, B. Zhang, G. Tagliaferri
- Physics
- 7 February 2006
The X-ray light curves of many GRBs have a steep tail following the gamma-rays and have some erratic flares. We assume that these tails and flares are of ``internal'' origin and that their decline…

- 19 October 2010
A measurement of the atmospheric muon neutrino energy spectrum from 100 GeV to 400 TeV was performed using a data sample of about 18 000 up-going atmospheric muon neutrino events in IceCube. Boosted…
Gasdynamics of relativistically expanding gamma-ray burst sources : kinematics, energetics, magnetic fields, and efficiency
- P. M'esz'aros, P. Laguna, M. Rees
- Physics
- 14 January 1993
We calculate both analytically and numerically the evolution of highly relativistic fireballs through the stages of free expansion and coasting, and determine the dependence of the thermodynamic and…
DISCOVERY OF A TRANSIENT GAMMA-RAY COUNTERPART TO FRB 131104

- 10 November 2016
We report our discovery in Swift satellite data of a transient gamma-ray counterpart (3.2σ confidence) to the fast radio burst (FRB) FRB 131104, the first such counterpart to any FRB. The transient…
The Swift satellite and redshifts of long gamma-ray bursts

- Physics
- 14 April 2006
Until 6 October 2005 sixteen redshifts had been measured of long gamma-ray bursts discovered by the Swift satellite. Further 45 redshifts have been measured of the long gamma- ray bursts discovered…
