Investigating Temporal Features in Swift GRB Afterglows: A Comparative Study of UVOT and XRT Data

Amit K. Ror, S. B. Pandey, S. R. Oates +4

This study presents a statistical analysis of optical light curves (LCs) of 200 UVOT-detected GRBs from 2005 to 2018. We have categorised these LCs based on their distinct morpholo…
