Ultimate synchrotron cutoff in gamma-ray spectra of blazars as a signature of the converter mechanism

Boris E. Stern, Yana Y. Tikhomirov

There is a robust upper limit on the energy of synchrotron radiation in high-energy astrophysics: , where is the fine structure constant and the…

Superlong GRBs

Yana Tikhomirova, Boris E. Stern

We searched for anomalously long GRBs (GRBs) in the archival records of the Burst and Transient Sources Experiment (BATSE). Ten obvious superlong (>500 s) GRBs with almost continuo…

New soft gamma-ray bursts in the BATSE records and spectral properties of X-ray rich bursts

Yana Tikhomirova, Boris Stern, Alexandra Kozyreva +1

A population of X-ray dominated gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed by Ginga, BeppoSax and Hete-2 should be represented in the BATSE data as presumably soft bursts. We have performed…

Superlong Gamma-Ray Bursts

Ya. Tikhomirova, B. E. Stern

Before the BATSE/GRO launch GRBs seem to be a uniform phenomenon with duration up to about 100 seconds. The BATSE has detected many events longer than 100 s and a few longer than 5…

Statistical Constraints On Non-Cosmological Subclasses Of GRBs

Ya. Tikhomirova, B. E. Stern, R. Svensson

There still exists the possibility that the phenomenon of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is a mixture of events of different nature, even within the class of long (>2 s) bursts. We try to…

The Decline of the Source Population of Gamma-Ray Bursts and Their Luminosity Function

B. E. Stern, Ya. Tikhomirova, R. Svensson

The source population of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) declines towards the present epoch being consistent with the measured decline of the star formation rate. We show this using the br…
