The rise and fall of the high-energy afterglow emission of GRB 180720B
M. Ronchi, F. Fumagalli, M. E. Ravasio +7
The Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) 180720B is one of the brightest events detected by the Fermi satellite and the first GRB detected by the H.E.S.S. telescope above 100 GeV. We analyse the…

Gamma-ray burst jet propagation, development of angular structure, and the luminosity function
O. S. Salafia, C. Barbieri, S. Ascenzi +1
The fate and observable properties of gamma-ray burst jets depend crucially on their interaction with the progenitor material that surrounds the central engine. We present a semi-a…

The host galaxies of double compact objects across cosmic time
Mattia Toffano, Michela Mapelli, Nicola Giacobbo +2
We explore the host galaxies of compact-object binaries (black hole--black hole binaries, BHBs; neutron star--black hole binaries, NSBHs; double-neutron stars; DNSs) across cosmic…
