GRBs have preferred jet opening angles and bulk Lorentz factors
G. Ghisellini, G. Ghirlanda, R. Salvaterra +7
We recently found that Gamma Ray Burst energies and luminosities, in their comoving frame, are remarkably similar. This, coupled with the clustering of energetics once corrected fo…

The faster the narrower: characteristic bulk velocities and jet opening angles of Gamma Ray Bursts
G. Ghirlanda, G. Ghisellini, R. Salvaterra +6
The jet opening angle theta_jet and the bulk Lorentz factor Gamma_0 are crucial parameters for the computation of the energetics of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). From the ~30 GRBs with…
