MeV absorption in gamma-ray bursts as a probe of their progenitor environments

Gor Oganesyan, Om Sharan Salafia, Emanuele Sobacchi +8

A small fraction of X-ray photons from -ray bursts (GRBs), after escaping the relativistic jet, are scattered by electrons in the circumburst medium. Subsequent photon-photon ab…
