Magnetic Fields In Relativistic Collisionless Shocks
Rodolfo Santana, Rodolfo Barniol Duran, Pawan Kumar
We present a systematic study on magnetic fields in Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) external forward shocks (FSs). There are 60 (35) GRBs in our X-ray (optical) sample, mostly from Swift. We…
On the origin of the radio emission of Sw 1644+57
Rodolfo Barniol Duran, Tsvi Piran
We apply relativistic equipartition synchrotron arguments to the radio data of the tidal disruption event candidate Sw 1644+57. We find that, regardless of the details of the equip…
Radius constraints and minimal equipartition energy of relativistically moving synchrotron sources
Rodolfo Barniol Duran, Ehud Nakar, Tsvi Piran
A measurement of the synchrotron self-absorption flux and frequency provides tight constraints on the physical size of the source and a robust lower limit on its energy. This lower…
