Apollo 11 and Fundamental Science
A. De Rújula
Half a century after a man first set foot on the moon it is interesting to revisit the occasion with a measure of hindsight. From the point of view of basic science the greatest ac…
'Jet breaks' and 'missing breaks' in the X-Ray afterglow of Gamma Ray Bursts
Shlomo Dado, Arnon Dar, A. De Rujula
The X-ray afterglows (AGs) of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and X-Ray Flashes (XRFs) have, after the fast decline phase of their prompt emission, a temporal behaviour varying between two…
The rapid decline of the prompt emission in Gamma-Ray Bursts
Shlomo Dado, Arnon Dar, A. De Rujula
Many gamma ray bursts (GRBs) have been observed with the Burst-Alert and X-Ray telescopes of the Swift satellite. The successive `pulses' of these GRBs end with a fast decline and…
What SWIFT has taught us about X-ray flashes and long-duration gamma-ray bursts
A. De Rujula
Recent data gathered and triggered by the SWIFT satellite have greatly improved our knowledge of long-duration gamma ray bursts (GRBs) and X-ray flashes (XRFs). This is particularl…
The Supernova associated with GRB 030329
Shlomo Dado, Arnon Dar, Alvaro De Rujula
The relative proximity of the recent gamma ray burst (GRB) 030329 resulted in a large gamma-ray fluence and in the brightest-ever afterglow (AG), hours after the burst, in the radi…
What we learn from the afterglow of GRB 021211
Shlomo Dado, Arnon Dar, Alvaro De Rujula
The behaviour of the afterglow (AG) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) directly provides, in the cannonball (CB) model, information about the environment of their progenitor stars. The wel…
