Relationship between the gamma-ray burst pulse width and energy due to the Doppler effect of fireballs

Y. -P. Qin, Y. -M. Dong, R. -J. Lu +2

We study in details how the pulse width of gamma-ray bursts is related with energy under the assumption that the sources concerned are in the stage of fireballs. Due to the Doppler…

Effects of chemical composition and thermohaline mixing on the accreting components for low--mass close binaries: application to blue stragglers

X. Chen, Z. Han

We studied the effects of surface composition and thermohaline mixing caused by secular instability on the accreting components for low--mass binaries and applied the results on a…

Doppler effect of gamma-ray bursts in the fireball framework

Yi-Ping Qin, Fu-Wen Zhang

The influence of the Doppler effect in the fireball framework on the spectrum of gamma-ray bursts is investigated. The study shows that the shape of the expected spectrum of an exp…

Jet break time -- flux density relationship and constraints on physical parameters of GRB afterglows

X. F. Wu, Z. G. Dai, E. W. Liang

We derive a relation between the flux density at the light-curve break of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow and the break time . The break is due to the transition…

The Luminosity - E_p Relation within Gamma--Ray Bursts and Implications for Fireball Models

E. W. Liang, Z. G. Dai, X. F. Wu

Using a sample of 2408 time-resolved spectra for 91 BATSE gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) presented by Preece et al., we show that the relation between the isotropic-equivalent luminosity…

Structure and evolution of low mass W UMa type systems

Lifang Li, Zhanwen Han, Fenghui Zhang

The structure and evolution of low mass W UMa type contact binaries are discussed by employing Eggleton's stellar evolution code. Assuming that these systems completely satisfy Roc…

Gamma-ray Emission Properties from Mature Pulsars in the Galaxy and in the Gould Belt

K. S. Cheng, L. Zhang, P. Leung +1

We study the -ray emission properties of pulsars by using a new self-consistent outer gap model. The outer gap can exist in pulsars with age over million years old if the effect…

Gamma-ray Luminosity and Death Lines of Pulsars with Outer Gaps

L. Zhang, K. S. Cheng, Z. J. Jiang +1

We re-examine the outer gap size by taking the geometry of the dipole magnetic field into account. Furthermore, we also consider that instead of taking the gap size at half of the…
