Identifying Merger-Driven and Collapsar-Driven Gamma-Ray Bursts with Precursor based Solely on Prompt Emission

Si-Yuan Zhu, Pak-Hin Thomas Tam, Fu-Wen Zhang +2

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are generally classified as Type~I GRBs, which originate from compact binary mergers, and Type~II GRBs, which originate from massive collapsars. The traditi…

Probing the emission physics and weak/soft population of Gamma-Ray Bursts with LOFT

L. Amati, G. Stratta, J. -L. Atteia +36

This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…

Gamma Ray Burst Prompt Emission Variability in Synchrotron and Synchrotron Self-Compton Lightcurves

L. Resmi, B. Zhang

Gamma Ray Burst prompt emission is believed to originate from electrons accelerated in a highly relativistic outflow. "Internal shocks" due to collisions between shells ejected by…

Can X-ray emission powered by a spinning-down magnetar explain some GRB light curve features?

N. Lyons, P. T. O'Brien, B. Zhang +3

Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are thought to be produced by the core-collapse of a rapidly-rotating massive star. This event generates a highly relativistic jet and prompt…
