Polarization of GRB Prompt Emission

arXiv:1308.5733

Abstract

We review the recent observational results of the gamma-ray linear polarization of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), and discuss some theoretical implications for the prompt emission mechanism and the magnetic composition of GRB jets. We also report a strict observational verification of CPT invariance in the photon sector as a result of the GRB polarization measurements.
