Constraining Circum-burst Environments of GRBs with Jet Break Features in X-ray Afterglows
Si-Ji Xin, Yu-Qi Zhou, Sheng-Jin Sun +6
The nature of the circum-burst medium serves as a key diagnostic for probing the progenitor systems and the physics of relativistic jet propagation in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In t…
