Short and canonical GRBs
Carlo Luciano Bianco, Maria Grazia Bernardini, Letizia Caito +3
Within the "fireshell" model for the Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) we define a "canonical GRB" light curve with two sharply different components: the Proper-GRB (P-GRB), emitted when the…
Status of GRB Observations with the Suzaku Wideband All-sky Monitor
M. S. Tashiro, Y. Terada, Y. Urata +28
The Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) is a function of the large lateral BGO shield of the Hard X-ray Detector (HXD) onboard Suzaku. Its large geometrical area of 800 cm^2 per side,…
Unraveling the dynamics and kinematics of GRB hosts with high resolution spectroscopy
Christina C. Thoene, Johan P. U. Fynbo, Lise Christensen +2
In the last years the research on GRB host galaxies has proceeded to more detailed studies both using high resolution afterglow spectroscopy and spatially resolved spectra of nearb…
Direct and bulk-scattered forward-shock emissions: sources of X-ray afterglow diversity
A. Panaitescu
I describe the modifications to the standard forward-shock model required to account for the X-ray light-curve features discovered by Swift in the early afterglow emission and prop…
RHESSI Spectral Fits of Swift GRBs
Eric C. Bellm, Mark E. Bandstra, Steven E. Boggs +4
One of the challenges of the Swift era has been accurately determining Epeak for the prompt GRB emission. RHESSI, which is sensitive from 30 keV to 17 MeV, can extend spectral cove…
When GRB afterglows get softer, hard components come into play
A. Moretti, R. Margutti, F. Pasotti +9
We aim to investigate the ability of simple spectral models to describe the GRB early afterglow emission. We performed a time resolved spectral analysis of a bright GRB sample dete…
