The association of GRB 060218 with a supernova and the evolution of the shock wave
- S. Campana, V. Mangano, +36 authors N. White
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 31 August 2006
Although the link between long γ-ray bursts (GRBs) and supernovae has been established, hitherto there have been no observations of the beginning of a supernova explosion and its intimate link to a… Expand
Low-Luminosity Gamma-Ray Bursts as a Unique Population: Luminosity Function, Local Rate, and Beaming Factor
- Enwei Liang, B. Zhang, F. Virgili, Z. Dai
- Physics
- 8 May 2006
Swift BAT has detected ~200 long-duration GRBs, with redshift measurements for ~50 of them. We derive the luminosity function (?HL) and the local event rate (?) of the conventional high-luminosity… Expand
Afterglow Emission from Highly Collimated Jets with Flat Electron Spectra: Application to the GRB 010222 Case?
We derive light curves of the afterglow emission from highly collimated jets if the power-law index (p )o f the electron energy distribution is above 1 but below 2. We find the following: (1) Below… Expand
Gamma-ray burst afterglows: effects of radiative corrections and non-uniformity of the surrounding medium
The afterglow of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) is commonly thought to be the result of continuous deceleration of a relativistically expanding fireball in the surrounding medium. Assuming that the… Expand
The Observer's Guide to the Gamma-Ray Burst-Supernova Connection

- 12 April 2016
We present a detailed report of the connection between long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their accompanying supernovae (SNe). The discussion presented here places emphasis on how… Expand
Gamma-ray bursts and afterglows from rotating strange starsand neutron stars
We here discuss a new model of $\gamma$-ray bursts (GRBs) based on differentially rotating strange stars. Strange stars in this model and differentially rotating neutron stars in the… Expand
X-ray Flares from Postmerger Millisecond Pulsars
Recent observations support the suggestion that short-duration gamma-ray bursts are produced by compact star mergers. The x-ray flares discovered in two short gamma-ray bursts last much longer than… Expand
Overall Evolution of Jetted Gamma-ray Burst Ejecta
Whether gamma-ray bursts are highly beamed or not is a very difficult but important problem that we are confronted with. Some theorists suggest that beaming effect usually leads to a sharp break in… Expand
An unexpectedly low-redshift excess of Swift gamma-ray burst rate
- H. Yu, F. Wang, Z. Dai, K. S. Cheng
- Physics
- 8 April 2015
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most violent explosions in the Universe and can be used to explore the properties of high-redshift universe. It is believed that the long GRBs are associated with the… Expand
Temporal Profiles and Spectral Lags of XRF 060218
The spectral and temporal properties of the nonthermal emission of the nearby XRF 060218 in the 0.3-150 keV band are studied. We show that both the spectral energy distribution and the light-curve… Expand
