The dynamics of radiation driven, optically thick winds
Rong-Feng Shen, Ehud Nakar, Tsvi Piran
Recent observation of some luminous transient sources with low color temperatures suggests that the emission is dominated by optically thick winds driven by super-Eddington accreti…
Outliers to the Isotropic Energy - Peak Energy Relation in GRBs
Ehud Nakar, Tsvi Piran
The peak energy - isotropic energy (EpEi) relation is among the most intriguing recent discoveries concerning GRBs. It can have numerous implications on our understanding of the em…
The Energy of Gamma-Ray Bursts
Tsvi Piran
The energy of a Gamma-Ray Burst is one of the most interesting factors that can help determining the origin of these mysterious explosions. After the discovery that GRBs are cosmol…
New Evidence for the Cosmological Origin of Gama-Ray Bursts
Ehud Cohen, Tsafrir Kolatt, Tsvi Piran
We compare the burst distribution of the new (2B) BATSE catalogue to a cosmological distribution. We find that the distribution is insensitive to cosmological parameters such as Om…
