The accuracy and reliability of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) as distance indicators are strongly restricted by their systematic errors, which are larger than the statistical errors. These systematic errors might come from either intrinsic variations of GRBs, or systematic errors in observations. In this paper, we consider the possible origins of systematic errors in the following observables: (i) the spectral peak energies (Ep) estimated by the cut-off power law (CPL) function and (ii) the peak…

In order to obtain an overview of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), we need a full sample. In this paper, we collected 6289 GRBs (from GRB 910421 to GRB 160509A) from the literature, including their prompt

Identifying Subclasses of Long Gamma-Ray Bursts with Cumulative Light Curve Morphology of Prompt Emissions

We argue for a new classification scheme of long gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) using the morphology of the cumulative light curve of prompt emission. We parametrize the morphology by an absolute deviation

Possible existence of the Ep-Lp and Ep-Eiso correlations for short gamma-ray bursts with a factor 5–100 dimmer than those for long gamma-ray bursts

Possible Origins of Dispersion of the Peak Energy-Brightness Correlations of Gamma-Ray Bursts

We collected and reanalyzed about 200 GRB data of prompt-emission with known redshift observed until the end of 2009, and selected 101 GRBs that were well-observed to have good spectral parameters in

Hardness as a spectral peak estimator for gamma-ray bursts

Simple hardness ratios are found to be a good estimator for the spectral peak energy in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Specifically, a high correlation strength is found between the vF v peak in the
