Applying models of pulsar wind nebulae to explain X-ray plateaux following short gamma-ray bursts
L. C. Strang, A Melatos
Many short Gamma-Ray Bursts (sGRBs) have a prolonged plateau in the X-ray afterglow lasting up to tens of thousands of seconds. A central engine injecting energy into the remnant m…

Inferring properties of neutron stars born in short gamma-ray bursts with a plerion-like X-ray plateau
L. C. Strang, A. Melatos, N. Sarin +1
Time-resolved spectra of six short gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs), measured by the {\em Swift} telescope, are used to estimate the parameters of a plerion-like model of the X-ray aftergl…
