How Pulses in Short Gamma-Ray Bursts Constrain HMXRB Evolution
arXiv:1906.00015 · doi:10.1017/S1743921318007603
Abstract
We demonstrate how pulse structures in Short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs), coupled with observations of GRB/GW 170817A, constrain the geometries of dying HMXRB systems composed of merging neutron stars.
