Monte Carlo simulations of Photospheric emission in relativistic outflows
Mukul Bhattacharya, Wenbin Lu, Rodolfo Santana +1
We study the spectra of photospheric emission from highly relativistic gamma-ray burst outflows using a Monte Carlo (MC) code. We consider the Comptonization of photons with a fast…
Swift J1644+57: an Ideal Test Bed of Radiation Mechanisms in a Relativistic Super-Eddington Jet
Patrick Crumley, Wenbin Lu, Rodolfo Santana +3
Within the first 10 days after Swift discovered the jetted tidal disruption event (TDE) Sw J1644+57, simultaneous observations in the radio, near-infrared, optical, X-ray and gamma…
Monte Carlo Simulations of the Photospheric Process
Rodolfo Santana, Patrick Crumley, Roberto A. Hernandez +1
We present a Monte Carlo (MC) code we wrote to simulate the photospheric process and to study the photospheric spectrum above the peak energy. Our simulations were performed with a…
Magnetic Fields In Relativistic Collisionless Shocks
Rodolfo Santana, Rodolfo Barniol Duran, Pawan Kumar
We present a systematic study on magnetic fields in Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) external forward shocks (FSs). There are 60 (35) GRBs in our X-ray (optical) sample, mostly from Swift. We…
