Gamma-ray bursts: the tip of the iceberg?
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
The spin-energy of a Kerr black hole surrounded by a torus may power emissions in multiple windows. The recently determined true GRB-energy of erg ind…
A calorimetric test for Kerr black holes in gamma-ray bursts
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Cosmological gamma-ray bursts are potentially associated with systems harboring a black rotating black hole. Calorimetry on yet "unseen" emissions in gravitational waves from a sur…
Gamma-ray bursts and gravitational radiation from black hole-torus systems
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Cosmological gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are probably powered by systems harboring a rotating black hole. These may result from hypernovae or black hole-neutron star coalescence. We id…
Past and future gauge in numerical relativity
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Numerical relativity describes a discrete initial value problem for general relativity. A choice of gauge involves slicing space-time into space-like hypersurfaces. This introduces…
Gravitational radiation from a torus around a black hole
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) from rapidly spinning black hole-torus systems may represent hypernovae or black hole-neutron star coalescence. We show that the torus may radiate grav…
Calorimetry of gamma-ray bursts: echos in gravitational waves
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Amir Levinson
Black holes surrounded by a disk or torus may drive the enigmatic cosmological gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Equivalence in poloidal topology to pulsar magnetospheres shows a high incid…
