An Intertwined Short and Long GRB with 4-minute Separation
Liang Li, Yu Wang, Bing Zhang +19
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the most energetic transients in the Universe, are traditionally classified into long-duration ( s) and short-duration ( s) events, ass…
Inherent self-consistency of the electron fraction between neutrino-dominated accretion flows and their progenitors
Rui-Qi Cui, Tong Liu
Stellar-mass black holes (BHs) surrounded by neutrino-dominated accretion flows (NDAFs) are a leading central engine of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In this work, we investigate the el…
Statistical analysis of multi-band plateaus in gamma-ray burst afterglows
Xiao-Yan Li, Tong Liu, Bao-Quan Huang +1
Plateau features are frequently observed in the afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), yet their physical origins remain under debate. In this work, we compile a sample of 124 GRBs…
Depolarization by jet precession in early optical afterglows of gamma-ray bursts
Bao-Quan Huang, Tong Liu, Guo-Yu Li
Polarization observations provide a unique way to probe the nature of jet magnetic fields in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Currently, some GRBs have been detected to be polarized in the…
