On the rate and on the gravitational wave emission of short and long GRBs

R. Ruffini, J. Rodriguez, M. Muccino +13

On the ground of the large number of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected with cosmological redshift, we classified GRBs in seven subclasses, all with binary progenitors originating gr…

On the classification of GRBs and their occurrence rates

R. Ruffini, J. A. Rueda, M. Muccino +8

There is mounting evidence for the binary nature of the progenitors of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). For a long GRB, the induced gravitational collapse (IGC) paradigm proposes as progen…

GRB 140619B: a short GRB from a binary neutron star merger leading to black hole formation

R. Ruffini, M. Muccino, M. Kovacevic +8

We show the existence of two families of short GRBs, both originating from the merger of binary neutron stars (NSs): family-1 with erg, leading to a massive NS as…

GRB 130427A and SN 2013cq: A Multi-wavelength Analysis of An Induced Gravitational Collapse Event

R. Ruffini, Y. Wang, M. Kovacevic +6

We have performed our data analysis of the observations by Swift and Fermi satellites in order to probe the induced gravitational collapse (IGC) paradigm for GRBs associated with s…

Induced gravitational collapse at extreme cosmological distances: the case of GRB 090423

R. Ruffini, L. Izzo, M. Muccino +7

CONTEXT: The induced gravitational collapse (IGC) scenario has been introduced in order to explain the most energetic gamma ray bursts (GRBs), Eiso=10^{52}-10^{54}erg, associated w…
