Episode-wise spectro-polarimetry of GRB 220107A: Testing the hypothesis of evolving radiation mechanisms

Rahul Gupta, Rushikesh Sonawane, Shabnam Iyyani +17

We investigate the spectro-polarimetric properties of the long-duration GRB~220107A, which exhibited two distinct emission episodes separated by a 40 s quiescent gap, to test wheth…
