A Universal Central Engine Hypothesis for Short and Long GRBs
David Eichler, Dafne Guetta, Hadar Manis
It is noted that X-ray tails (XRTs) of short, hard -ray bursts (SHBs) are similar to X-ray flashes (XRFs). We suggest a universal central engine hypothesis, as a way of accounti…

Spectral Lags Explained as Scattering from Accelerated Scatterers
David Eichler, Hadar Manis
A quantitative theory of spectral lags for -ray bursts (GRBs) is given. The underlying hypothesis is that GRB subpulses are photons that are scattered into our line of sight by…

A Model for Fast Rising, Slowly Decaying Subpulses in Gamma-Ray Bursts
David Eichler, Hadar Manis
Gamma ray bursts (GRB's) often feature subpulses that have a distinctively asymmetric profile -- they rise quickly and decay much more slowly, while their spectrum softens slightly…
