GRB 210619B: first gamma-ray burst detection by the novel polarimeter MOPTOP

M. Shrestha, I. A. Steele, S. Kobayashi +4

GRB~210619B was a bright long gamma-ray burst (GRB) which was optically followed up by the novel polarimeter MOPTOP on the Liverpool Telescope (LT). This was the first GRB detectio…

GRB minimum variability timescale with Insight-HXMT and Swift: implications for progenitor models, dissipation physics and GRB classifications

A. E. Camisasca, C. Guidorzi, L. Amati +18

The dissipation process of GRB prompt emission is still unknown. Study of temporal variability may provide a unique way to discriminate the imprint of the inner engine activity fro…

The role of the magnetic fields in GRB outflows

N. Jordana-Mitjans, C. G. Mundell, S. Kobayashi +12

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are bright extragalactic flashes of gamma-ray radiation and briefly the most energetic explosions in the Universe. Their catastrophic origin (the merger of…
