A Comprehensive Analysis of Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Data. I. Spectral Components and Their Possible Physical Origins of LAT/GBM GRBs
Bin-Bin Zhang, Bing Zhang, En-Wei Liang +6
We present a systematic analysis of the spectral and temporal properties of 17 GRBs co-detected by GBM and LAT on board the Fermi satellite by May 2010. We performed a time-resolve…
A Theory of Mulicolor Black Body Emission from Relativistically Expanding Plasmas
Asaf Pe'er, Felix Ryde
We consider the emission of photons from the inner parts of a relativistically expanding plasma outflow, characterized by a constant Lorentz factor, Gamma. Photons that are injecte…
The Connection Between Thermal and Non-Thermal Emission in Gamma-ray Bursts: General Considerations and GRB090902B as a Case Study
Asaf Pe'er, Bin-Bin Zhang, Felix Ryde +4
Photospheric (thermal) emission is inherent to the gamma-ray burst (GRB) "fireball" model. We show here, that inclusion of this component in the analysis of the GRB prompt emission…
Observations, theory and implications of thermal emission from gamma-ray bursts
Asaf Pe'er, Felix Ryde
Recent analyses show evidence for a thermal emission component that accompanies the non-thermal emission during the prompt phase of GRBs. First, we show the evidence for the existe…
Fast infrared variability from a relativistic jet in GX 339-4
P. Casella, T. J. Maccarone, K. O'Brien +14
We present the discovery of fast infrared/X-ray correlated variability in the black-hole transient GX 339-4. The source was observed with sub-second time resolution simultaneously…
Fermi/Gamma-ray Burst Monitor detection of SGR J1550-5418
Y. Kaneko, E. Gogus, C. Kouveliotou +3
SGR J1550-5418 exhibited three active bursting episodes in 2008 October and in 2009 January and March, emitting hundreds of typical Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts in soft gamma-r…
