Temporal Deconvolution study of Long and Short Gamma-Ray Burst Light curves

P. N. Bhat, Michael S. Briggs, Valerie Connaughton +24

The light curves of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are believed to result from internal shocks reflecting the activity of the GRB central engine. Their temporal deconvolution can reveal p…

Constraints on the Synchrotron Shock Model for the Fermi GBM Gamma-Ray Burst 090820A

J. Michael Burgess, Robert D. Preece, Matthew G. Baring +25

Discerning the radiative dissipation mechanism for prompt emission in Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) requires detailed spectroscopic modeling that straddles the peak in the 100 keV…

Rest-frame properties of 32 gamma-ray bursts observed by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor

D. Gruber, J. Greiner, A. von Kienlin +27

Aims: In this paper we study the main spectral and temporal properties of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed by Fermi/GBM. We investigate these key properties of GRBs in the rest-fra…

A New Derivation of GRB Jet Opening Angles from the Prompt Gamma-Ray Emission

Adam Goldstein, Robert D. Preece, Michael S. Briggs +24

The jet opening angle of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is an important parameter for determining the characteristics of the progenitor, and the information contained in the opening angle…

Fermi/GBM observations of the ultra-long GRB 091024: A burst with an optical flash

D. Gruber, T. Krühler, S. Foley +27

In this paper we examine gamma-ray and optical data of GRB 091024, a gamma-ray burst (GRB) with an extremely long duration of T90~1020 s, as observed with the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst…
