Multiwavelength properties of short gamma ray bursts with extended emission observed by Swift
M. M. Dinatolo, A. Mei, R. Brivio +11
Short gamma-ray bursts with extended emission (SGRBEEs) are a particular class of long GRBs (LGRBs) which, despite their duration, share several observational features with short G…
EP251023a: A fast X-ray transient featuring a magnetar-powered optical internal plateau followed by a steep decay
Shuai-Qing Jiang, Dong Xu, Wei-Hua Lei +33
EP251023a is an extragalactic fast X-ray transient (eFXT) detected solely by EP without a gamma-ray counterpart. The prompt emission consists of a main emission with a duration $T_…
Multi-wavelength study of EP250416a / GRB 250416C: An Optically Dark Long GRB with a Late Jet Break
Guoying Zhao, Duo-Le Cao, Rong-Feng Shen +29
We present multi-wavelength study of the /X-ray transient EP250416a (also designated GRB 250416C), triggered by the Einstein Probe (EP) Wide-field X-ray Telescope and also by S…
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…
Exploring the connection between compact object mergers and fast X-ray transients: The cases of LXT 240402A and EP250207b
R. L. Becerra, Yu-Han Yang, Eleonora Troja +29
The connection between compact object mergers and some extragalactic fast X-ray transients (FXRTs) has long been hypothesized, but never ultimately established. In this work, we in…
Time-resolved spectro-polarimetric analysis of extremely bright GRB 230307A: Possible Evidence of evolution from photospheric to synchrotron dominated emission
Soumya Gupta, Rahul Gupta, Tanmoy Chattopadhayay +11
The radiation mechanisms powering Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their physical processes remain one of the unresolved questions in high-energy astrophysics. Spectro-polarimetric obse…
