On the synchrotron spectrum of GRB prompt emission

Siyao Xu, Yuan-Pei Yang, Bing Zhang

The prompt emission spectrum of Gamma-ray bursts (GRB) is characterized by a smoothly joint broken power-law spectrum known as the Band function. The typical low-energy photon inde…

Bunching Coherent Curvature Radiation in Three-Dimensional Magnetic Field Geometry: Application to Pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts

Yuan-Pei Yang, Bing Zhang

The extremely high brightness temperatures of pulsars and fast radio bursts (FRBs) require their radiation mechanisms to be coherent. Coherent curvature radiation by bunches has be…

Dispersion Measure Variation of Repeating Fast Radio Burst Sources

Yuan-Pei Yang, Bing Zhang

The repeating fast radio burst (FRB) 121102 was recently localized in a dwarf galaxy at a cosmological distance. The dispersion measure (DM) derived for each burst from FRB 121102…

Large host-galaxy dispersion measure of fast radio bursts

Yuan-Pei Yang, Rui Luo, Zhuo Li +1

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) have excessive dispersion measures (DMs) and an all-sky distribution, which point toward an extragalactic or even a cosmological origin. We develop a metho…

Tight constraint on photon mass from pulsar spindown

Yuan-Pei Yang, Bing Zhang

Pulsars are magnetized rotating compact objects. They spin down due to magnetic dipole radiation and wind emission. If photon has a nonzero mass, the spin down rate would be smalle…
