Prompt Ultraviolet-to-Soft-X-Ray Emission of Gamma-Ray Bursts: Application to GRB 031203?
Zhuo Li, Li-Ming Song
We discuss the prompt emission of GRBs, allowing for pair production and synchrotron self-absorption. The observed hard spectra suggest heavy pair-loading in GRBs. The re-emis…

X-ray afterglows of gamma-ray bursts in the synchrotron self-Compton dominated regime
Zhuo Li, L. M. Song
We consider in this paper the effect of synchrotron self-Compton process on X-ray afterglows of gamma-ray bursts. We find that for a wide range of parameter values, especially for…

Pair loading in Gamma-Ray Burst Fireball And Prompt Emission From Pair-Rich Reverse Shock
Zhuo Li, Z. G. Dai, T. Lu +1
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to originate from ultra-relativistic winds/fireballs to avoid the "compactness problem". However, the most energetic photons in GRBs may still…
