Contribution of dark matter annihilation to gamma-ray burst afterglows near massive galaxy centers
Bao-Quan Huang, Tong Liu, Feng Huang +2
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to be powered by ultrarelativistic jets. If these jets encounter and accelerate excess electrons and positrons produced by particle dark matter…
Constraining the Jet Launching Time of GRB 170817A by Utilizing the Baryon Loading
Jia Ren, Da-Bin Lin, Lu-lu Zhang +4
The observed delay of GRB 170817A relative to GW170817 carries significant information about gamma-ray burst (GRB) physics and is subject to intense debate. In this letter, we put…
GRB 140423A: A Case of Stellar Wind to Interstellar Medium Transition in the Afterglow
Long Li, Xiang-Gao Wang, WeiKang Zheng +14
We present very early ground-based optical follow-up observations of GRB~140423A, which was discovered by \emph{Swift}/BAT and by {\it Fermi}/GBM. Its broadband afterglow was monit…
Photospheric Emission in Gamma-ray Bursts: Variability
Kai Wang, Da-Bin Lin, Yun Wang +6
It is generally believed that the variability of photospheric emission in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) traces that of the jet power. This work further investigates the variability of ph…
Early Optical Observations of GRB 150910A: Bright Jet Optical Afterglow and X-ray Dipole Radiation from a Magnetar Central Engine
Lang Xie, Xiang-Gao Wang, Song-Mei Qin +10
Gamma-ray burst (GRB) 150910A was detected by {\it Swift}/BAT, and then rapidly observed by {\it Swift}/XRT, {\it Swift}/UVOT, and ground-based telescopes. We report Lick Observato…
Is GRB 110715A the progenitor of FRB 171209?
Xiang-Gao Wang, Long Li, Yuan-Pei Yang +5
The physical origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs) is unknown. Young magnetars born from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been suggested to be a possible central engine of FRBs. We test s…
