Making a Short Gamma-Ray Burst from a Long one: Implications for the Nature of GRB 060614
Bing Zhang, Bin-Bin Zhang, En-Wei Liang +3
The absence of a supernova accompanying the nearby long GRB 060614 poses a great puzzle about the progenitor of this event and challenges the current GRB classification scheme. Thi…
Temporal Profiles and Spectral Lags of XRF 060218
En-Wei Liang, Bin-Bin Zhang, Mike Stamatikos +5
The spectral and temporal properties of the non-thermal emission ofthe nearby XRF 060218 in 0.3-150 keV band are studied. We show that both the spectral energy distribution and the…
GRB Radiative Efficiencies Derived from the Swift Data: GRBs vs. XRFs, Long vs. Short
Bing Zhang, Enwei Liang, Kim L. Page +17
We systematically analyze the prompt emission and the early afterglow data of a sample of 31 GRBs detected by {\em Swift} before September 2005, and estimate the GRB radiative effi…
Thermal Emission from a Hot Cocoon Surrounding the Jet of XRF 060218
Enwei Liang, Bing Zhang, Bin-Bin Zhang +1
It is long speculated that long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate froma relativistic jet emerging from a collapsing massive star progenitor. Although associations of core-…
