"Orphan" afterglows in the Universal Structured Jet Model for gamma-ray bursts
Elena M. Rossi, Rosalba Perna, Frédéric Daigne
The paucity of reliable achromatic breaks in Gamma-Ray Burst afterglow light curves motivates independent measurements of the jet aperture. Serendipitous searches of afterglows, es…
The rise of the afterglow in GRB 050820a
F. Genet, F. Daigne, R. Mochkovitch
The early optical afterglow of GRB 050820a recorded by the RAPTOR telescope shows both a contribution from the prompt emission and the initial rise of the afterglow. It is therefor…
The low-luminosity tail of the GRB distribution: the case of GRB 980425
F. Daigne, R. Mochkovitch
(abridged) The association of GRB 980425 with SN 1998bw at z=0.0085 implies the existence of a population of GRBs with an isotropic-equivalent luminosity which is about 10^4 times…
Can the early X-ray afterglow of GRBs be explained by a contribution from the reverse shock?
Franck Genet, Frederic Daigne, Robert Mochkovitch
We propose to explain the recent observations of GRB early X-ray afterglows with SWIFT by the dissipation of energy in the reverse shock which crosses the ejecta as it is decelerat…
