Rotating massive strangeon stars and X-ray plateau of short GRBs

Xi-Yan Yang, Xiao-Yu Lai, Wei-Wei Tan +1

Strangeon stars, which are proposed to describe the nature of pulsar-like compact stars, have passed various observational tests. The maximum mass of a non-rotating strangeon star…

Joint constraint on the jet structures from the short GRB population and GRB 170817A

Xiao-Feng Cao, Wei-Wei Tan, Yun-Wei Yu +1

The nearest GRB 170817A provided an opportunity to probe the angular structure of the jet of this short gamma-ray burst (SGRB), by using its off-axis observed afterglow emission. I…

The jet structure and the intrinsic luminosity function of short gamma-ray bursts

Wei-Wei Tan, Yun-Wei Yu

The joint observation of GW170817 and GRB 170817A indicated that short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) can originate from binary neutron star mergers. Moreover, some SGRBs could be detect…

Short Gamma-Ray Bursts and Gravitational-Wave Observations from Eccentric Compact Binaries

Wei-Wei Tan, Xi-Long Fan, F. Y. Wang

Mergers of compact binaries, such as binary neutron stars (BNSs), neutron star-black hole binaries (NSBHs), and binary black holes (BBHs), are expected to be the best candidates fo…

Research on the redshift evolution of luminosity function and selection effect of GRBs

W. W. Tan, F. Y. Wang

We study the redshift evolution of the luminosity function (LF) and redshift selection effect of long gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs). The method is to fit the observed peak flux and reds…

The star formation history inferred from long gamma-ray bursts with high pseudo-redshifts

Wei-Wei Tan, Xiao-Feng Cao, Yun-Wei Yu

By employing a simple semi-analytical star formation model where the formation rates of Population (Pop) I/II and III stars can be calculated, respectively, we account for the numb…

Determining the luminosity function of Swift long gamma-ray bursts with pseudo-redshifts

Wei-Wei Tan, Xiao-Feng Cao, Yun-Wei Yu

The determination of luminosity function (LF) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is of an important role for the cosmological applications of the GRBs, which is however hindered seriously…
