The temporally evolving energy and waiting time statistics of two repeating fast radio bursts
Yu Sang, Hai-Nan Lin
Based on two very large samples of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs), i.e. FRB 20121102A and FRB 20201124A observed by the FAST telescope, we study the statistical properties of e…
Inferring redshift and energy distributions of fast radio bursts from the first CHIME/FRB catalog
Li Tang, Hai-Nan Lin, Xin Li
We reconstruct the extragalactic dispersion measure \ -- redshift relation ( relation) from well-localized fast radio bursts (FRBs) using Bayesian inference method. T…
Statistical similarity between soft gamma repeaters and the repeating fast radio bursts
Yu Sang, Hai-Nan Lin
We study the statistical properties of the soft gamma repeater SGR 1935+2154. We find that the cumulative distributions of duration, waiting time, fluence and flux can be well fitt…
Scale-invariance in the repeating fast radio burst 121102
Hai-Nan Lin, Yu Sang
The statistical properties of the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102 are investigated. We find that the cumulative distributions of fluence, flux density, total energy and waiti…
Scale-invariance in soft gamma repeaters
Zhe Chang, Hai-Nan Lin, Yu Sang +1
The statistical properties of the soft gamma repeater SGR J1550--5418 are investigated carefully. We find that the cumulative distributions of fluence, peak flux and duration can b…
Polarization of gamma-ray burst afterglows in the synchrotron self-Compton process from a highly relativistic jet
Hai-Nan Lin, Xin Li, Zhe Chang
Linear polarization have been observed in both the prompt phase and afterglow of some bright gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Polarization in the prompt phase spans a wide range, and may b…
Testing Einstein's Equivalence Principle with Short Gamma-ray Bursts
Yu Sang, Hai-Nan Lin, Zhe Chang
Einstein's equivalence principle (EEP) can be tested by the time delay between photons with different energies passing through a gravitational field. As one of the most energetic e…
Effect of GRB spectra on the empirical luminosity correlations and the GRB Hubble diagram
Hai-Nan Lin, Xin Li, Zhe Chang
The spectra of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in a wide energy range can usually be well described by the Band function, which is a two smoothly jointed power laws cutting at a breaking e…
Constraining the Lorentz invariance violation from the continuous spectra of short gamma-ray bursts
Zhe Chang, Xin Li, Hai-Nan Lin +3
In quantum gravity, a foamy structure of space-time leads to Lorentz invariance violation (LIV). As the most energetic astrophysical processes in the Universe, gamma-ray bursts (GR…
Are long gamma-ray bursts standard candles?
Hai-Nan Lin, Xin Li, Sai Wang +1
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are widely proposed as an effective probe to trace the Hubble diagram of the Universe in high redshift range. However, the calibration of GRBs is not as eas…
Gamma-ray polarization of synchrotron-self-Compton process from a highly relativistic jet
Zhe Chang, Hai-Nan Lin
The high polarization observed in the prompt phase of some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) arouses extensive studies on the emission mechanism. In this paper, we investigate the polarizati…
The change of GRB polarization angles in the magnetic-dominated jet model
Zhe Chang, Hai-Nan Lin
The polarimetric measurement on the prompt phase of GRB 100826A shows that the polarization angle changes between two adjacent time intervals. We will show that t…
Gamma-ray burst polarization via Compton scattering process
Zhe Chang, Hai-Nan Lin, Yunguo Jiang
Synchrotron radiation and Compton scattering are widely accepted as the most likely emission mechanisms of some astrophysical phenomena, such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and active…

Based on the quantum electrodynamics, we present a generic formalism of the polarization for beamed monochromatic photons scattered by electrons in any spectral distribution. The f…
Gamma-ray polarization induced by cold electrons via Compton processes
Zhe Chang, Yunguo Jiang, Hai-Nan Lin
The polarization measurement is an important tool to probe the prompt emission mechanism in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The synchrotron photons can be scattered by cold electrons in t…
Constraining the Bulk Lorentz Factor of GRB Outflow in the Magnetic-dominated Jet Model
Zhe Chang, Hai-Nan Lin, Yunguo Jiang
Recent observations by the Fermi-LAT showed that there are delayed arrivals of GeV photons relative to the onset of MeV photons in some GRBs. In order to avoid a large optical dept…
A unified constraint on the Lorentz invariance violation from both short and long GRBs
Zhe Chang, Yunguo Jiang, Hai-Nan Lin
Possible Lorentz invariance violation (LIV) has been investigated for a long time based on observations of GRBs . These arguments relied on the assumption that photons with differe…
