On the Short GRB GeV emission from a Kerr Black hole

R. Ruffini, M. Muccino, Y. Aimuratov +10

On a GRB afterglow model consistent with hypernovae observations

R. Ruffini, M. Karlica, N. Sahakyan +5

We describe the afterglows of the long gamma-ray-burst (GRB) 130427A within the context of a binary-driven hypernova (BdHN). The afterglows originate from the interaction between a…

GRB 081024B and GRB 140402A: two additional short GRBs from binary neutron star mergers

Y. Aimuratov, R. Ruffini, M. Muccino +6

Theoretical and observational evidences have been recently gained for a two-fold classification of short bursts: 1) short gamma-ray flashes (S-GRFs), with isotropic energy $E_{iso}…

Early X-ray Flares in GRBs

R. Ruffini, Y. Wang, Y. Aimuratov +17

We analyze the early X-ray flares in the GRB "flare-plateau-afterglow" (FPA) phase observed by Swift-XRT. The FPA occurs only in one of the seven GRB subclasses: the binary-driven…

Two-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamics simulations of super-luminous interacting supernovae of type IIn

Alkiviadis Vlasis, Luc Dessart, Edouard Audit

Some interacting supernovae (SNe) of type IIn show a sizeable continuum polarisation suggestive of a large scale asymmetry in the circumstellar medium (CSM) and/or the SN ejecta. H…
