The clustering of gamma-ray bursts in the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall: the largest structure in the Universe?
I. Horvath, D. Szécsi, J. Hakkila +5
The Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall is a statistically significant clustering of gamma-ray bursts around redshift 2. Motivated by recent theoretical results indicating that a m…
The fates of massive stars: exploring uncertainties in stellar evolution with METISSE
Poojan Agrawal, Jarrod Hurley, Simon Stevenson +2
In the era of advanced electromagnetic and gravitational wave detectors, it has become increasingly important to effectively combine and study the impact of stellar evolution on bi…
The effect of the metallicity-specific star formation history on double compact object mergers
Coenraad J. Neijssel, Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Simon Stevenson +7
We investigate the impact of uncertainty in the metallicity-specific star formation rate over cosmic time on predictions of the rates and masses of double compact object mergers ob…
The impact of pair-instability mass loss on the binary black hole mass distribution
Simon Stevenson, Matthew Sampson, Jade Powell +4
A population of binary black hole mergers has now been observed in gravitational waves by Advanced LIGO and Virgo. The masses of these black holes appear to show evidence for a pil…
Single and binary stellar progenitors of long-duration gamma-ray bursts
Dorottya Szécsi
This review describes the most common theories behind long-duration gamma-ray burst progenitors. I discuss two astrophysical scenarios: the collapsar and the magnetar models. Accor…
How may short-duration GRBs form? A review of progenitor theories
Dorottya Szécsi
The origin of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is still a fascinating field of research nowadays. While we have been collecting more and more observationally constrained properties of GRB-p…
