Two-Component Jet Models of Gamma-Ray Burst Sources
Fang Peng, Arieh Konigl, Jonathan Granot
Recent observational and theoretical studies have raised the possibility that the collimated outflows in gamma-ray burst (GRB) sources have two distinct components: a narrow (openi…

Neutron-Rich Hydromagnetic Outflows in Gamma-Ray Burst Sources
Nektarios Vlahakis, Fang Peng, Arieh Konigl
We demonstrate that ``hot'' MHD outflows from neutron-rich black-hole debris disks can significantly alleviate the baryon-loading problem in gamma-ray burst (GRB) sources. We argue…
