Gamma Ray Bursts as Electromagnetic Outflows
Maxim Lyutikov, Roger Blandford
(Abridged) We interpret gamma ray bursts as relativistic, electromagnetic explosions. Specifically, we propose that they are created when a rotating, relativistic, stellar-mass pro…
B0850+054: a new gravitational lens system from CLASS
A. D. Biggs, D. Rusin, I. W. A. Browne +12
We report the discovery of a new gravitational lens system from the CLASS survey. Radio observations with the VLA, the WSRT and MERLIN show that the radio source B0850+054 is compr…
