Kerr black holes and time profiles of gamma-ray bursts
S. McBreen, B. McBreen, L. Hanlon +1
The cumulative light curves of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) smooth the spiky nature of the running light curve. The cumulative count increases in an approximately linear way with time t…
Cumulative light curves of gamma-ray bursts and relaxation systems
S. McBreen, B. McBreen, L. Hanlon +1
The cumulative light curves of a large sample of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) were obtained by summing the BATSE counts. The smoothed profiles are much simpler than the complex and erra…
Temporal properties of short and long gamma-ray bursts
S. McBreen, F. Quilligan, B. McBreen +2
A temporal analysis was performed on a sample of 100 bright short GRBs with T90 < 2s from the BATSE Current Catalog along with a similar analysis on 319 long bright GRBs with T90 >…
Timing diagrams and correlations in gamma-ray bursts signal jets from accretion into black holes
S. McBreen, B. McBreen, F. Quilligan +1
The temporal properties of a sample of 498 bright gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with durations between 0.05 s and 674 s were analysed. The large range in duration (T90) is accompanied by…
ISO observations of Hickson Compact Group 31 with the central Wolf-Rayet galaxy NGC 1741
B. O'Halloran, L. Metcalfe, B. McBreen +5
Hickson Compact Group (HCG) 31, consisting of the Wolf-Rayet galaxy NGC 1741 and its irregular dwarf companions, was observed using the Infrared Space Observatory. The deconvolved…
