Are Gamma-Ray Bursts a Standard Energy Reservoir?
Li-Xin Li
One of the most important discoveries in the observation of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is that the total energy emitted by a GRB in gamma-rays has a very narrow distribution around 10…
The X-Ray Transient 080109 in NGC 2770: an X-Ray Flash Associated with a Normal Core-Collapse Supernova
Li-Xin Li
Although it is generally thought that long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) are associated with core-collapse supernovae (SNe), so far only four pairs of GRBs and SNe with firmly…
Star Formation History up to z = 7.4: Implications for Gamma-Ray Bursts and the Cosmic Metallicity Evolution
Li-Xin Li
The current Swift sample of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with measured redshifts allows to test the assumption that GRBs trace the star formation in the Universe. Some authors have clai…
Are Gamma-Ray Bursts Standard Candles?
Li-Xin Li
By dividing a sample of 48 long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) into four groups with redshift from low to high and fitting each group with the Amati relation log Eiso = a + b log…
Gamma-Ray Burst Precursors as the Remnant of the Thermal Radiation Initially Trapped in the Fireball
Li-Xin Li
In the standard fireball model of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the fireball starts with an optically thick phase. As it expands, the fireball becomes optically thin at some stage. The…
Can Temperature Be Quantized?
Li-Xin Li
It is shown that the temperature may be quantized in some spacetime due to the periodically topological structure of the Euclidean section. The quanta of the temperature is the Haw…
