Gamma-ray burst data strongly favor the three-parameter fundamental plane (Dainotti) correlation relation over the two-parameter one

Shulei Cao, Maria Dainotti, Bharat Ratra

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), observed to redshift , are potential probes of the largely unexplored part of the early Universe. Thus, finding relevant relations a…

Interpretation of Radio Afterglows in the framework of the Standard Fireball and Energy Injection models

Delina Levine, Maria Dainotti, Nissim Fraija +3

Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are panchromatic, highly energetic transients whose energy emission mechanism is still debated. One of the possible explanations is the standard fireball mo…

An Intertwined Short and Long GRB with 4-minute Separation

Liang Li, Yu Wang, Bing Zhang +19

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the most energetic transients in the Universe, are traditionally classified into long-duration ( s) and short-duration ( s) events, ass…

Variation of Microphysical Parameters in Reverse-shock Scenario

Nissim Fraija, Boris Betancourt-Kamenetskaia, Antonio Galván +1

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), among the most compelling astrophysical phenomena, are potential candidates for exploring the evolution of energy distribution among magnetic fields and pa…

Gamma Ray Burst afterglow and prompt-afterglow relations: an overview

Maria Dainotti, Roberta Del Vecchio

The mechanism responsible for the afterglow emission of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) and its connection to the prompt -ray emission is still a debated issue. Relations between intri…

Cosmology Intertwined: A Review of the Particle Physics, Astrophysics, and Cosmology Associated with the Cosmological Tensions and Anomalies

Elcio Abdalla, Guillermo Franco Abellán, Amin Aboubrahim +200

In this paper we will list a few important goals that need to be addressed in the next decade, also taking into account the current discordances between the different cosmological…

Examining Two-Dimensional Luminosity-time Correlations for Gamma Ray Burst Radio Afterglows with VLA and ALMA

Delina Levine, Maria Dainotti, Kevin J. Zvonarek +4

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow emission can be observed from sub-TeV to radio wavelengths, though only 6.6\% of observed GRBs present radio afterglows. We examine GRB radio light…

Radio-bright vs. Radio-dark Gamma-ray Bursts -- More Evidence for Distinct Progenitors

Angana Chakraborty, Maria Dainotti, Olivia Cantrell +1

We analyze two distinct samples of GRBs, with and without radio afterglow emission. We use a sample of 211 GRBs which is an update of the previous sample from arXiv:1902.01974, and…

A Comparison between Radio Loud and Quiet Gamma-Ray Bursts, and Evidence for a Potential Correlation between Intrinsic Duration and Redshift in the Radio Loud Population

Nicole M. Lloyd-Ronning, Ben Gompertz, Asaf Pe'er +2

We extend our study of energetic radio loud and quiet gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), suggesting these GRBs potentially come from two separate progenitor systems. We expand the sample fro…

Gamma Ray Burst Prompt correlations

Maria Dainotti, Roberta Del Vecchio, Mariusz Tarnopolski

The mechanism responsible for the prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is still a debated issue. The prompt phase-related GRB correlations can allow to discriminate among the…

Gamma-ray Bursts as distance indicators through a machine learning approach

Maria Dainotti, Vahé Petrosian, Malgorzata Bogdan +7

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are spectacularly energetic events, with the potential to inform on the early universe and its evolution, once their redshifts are known. Unfortunately, det…

Spectral and Polarization Properties of Photospheric Emission From Stratified Jets

Hirotaka Ito, Shigehiro Nagataki, Jin Matsumoto +5

We explore the spectral and polarization properties of photospheric emissions from stratified jets in which multiple components, separated by a sharp velocity shear regions, are di…

GRB Redshift Estimation using Machine Learning and the Associated Web-App

Aditya Narendra, Maria Dainotti, Milind Sarkar +7

Context. Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), observed at redshifts as high as 9.4, could serve as valuable probes for investigating the distant Universe. However, this necessitates an increas…

A Study of the Gamma-Ray Burst Fundamental Plane

Maria Dainotti, Christian Gilbertson, Sergey Postnikov +2

A class of long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with a plateau phase in their X-ray afterglows obeys a three-dimensional (3D) relation (Dainotti et al. 2016), between the rest-frame time a…
