Synchrotron polarization of a hybrid distribution of relativistic thermal and nonthermal electrons in GRB prompt emission
Kangfa Cheng, Jirong Mao, Xiaohong Zhao +4
Synchrotron polarization of relativistic nonthermal electrons in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has been widely studied. However, recent numerical simulations of relativistic shocks and m…
Polarization degree of magnetic field structure changes caused by random magnetic field in Gamma-ray Burst
Jiang-Chuan Tuo, Hong-Bang Liu, Qian-Nan Mai +4
In a Poynting-flux-dominated (PFD) jet that exhibits an ordered magnetic field, a transition towards turbulence and magnetic disorder follows after magnetic reconnection and energy…
The polarization-angle flip in GRB prompt emission
Kangfa Cheng, Xiaohong Zhao, Jirong Mao +1
Aims. We aim to provide an explanation for the PA rotation in GRBs and find the physical conditions that lead to the rotation by 90 degrees in the toroidal magnetic-field (MF) mode…
