The complex light-curve of the afterglow of GRB071010A
S. Covino, P. D'Avanzo, A. Klotz +51
We present and discuss the results of an extensive observational campaign devoted to GRB071010A, a long-duration gamma-ray burst detected by the Swift satellite. This event was fol…
Open issues in gamma-ray bursts: polarimetry and dark GRBs
D. Malesani, S. Covino, E. M. Rossi +4
We review some open problems in the physics of afterglows, namely their polarization properties and the existence of dark/faint bursts. Polarization studies yield precious insights…
The afterglow of GRB 021004: surfing on density waves
D. Lazzati, E. Rossi, S. Covino +2
We present a model for the early optical afterglow of GRB 021004. This burst had one of the earliest detected optical afterglows, allowing a dense optical sampling. The lightcurve…
Emission lines in GRBs constrain the total energy reservoir
G. Ghisellini, D. Lazzati, E. M. Rossi +1
The emission features observed in the X-ray afterglow of Gamma Ray Bursts are extremely powerful. Since they last at least for several hours, they imply energies of the order of 1e…
Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow emission with a decaying magnetic field
Elena Rossi, Martin J. Rees
In models for gamma ray burst afterglows, it is normally assumed that the external shock strongly amplifies the magnetic field and that this field maintains a steady value througho…
Afterglow lightcurves, viewing angle and the jet structure of gamma-ray bursts
E. Rossi, D. Lazzati, M. J. Rees
Gamma ray bursts are often modelled as jet-like outflows directed towards the observer; the cone angle of the jet is then commonly inferred from the time at which there is a steepe…
