Gamma Ray Emission from Merger Shocks in the Coma Cluster of Galaxies
R. C. Berrington, C. D. Dermer
A numerical simulation model of the injection and cooling of nonthermal particles energized by shocks formed in merging clusters of galaxies is used to fit radio and X-ray data obs…
External Shock Model for the Prompt Phase of Gamma Ray Bursts: Implications for GRB Source Models
Charles D. Dermer, Kurt E. Mitman
An external shock model for the prompt gamma-ray luminous phase of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is treated both analytically and numerically. A widely cited derivation claiming that an…
Supranova Model for the Delayed Reddened Optical Excesses Detected in Several GRBs
Charles D. Dermer
Excess reddened optical emission has been measured in the power-law decay afterglow light curves of several GRBs some tens of days after the GRB events. This emission is claimed to…
Gamma Ray Bursts and the Collapsar Model: a comment on astro-ph/0203391 and astro-ph/0203467
Charles D. Dermer
In an essay published in 1997, M. J. Harris pointed out that the development of a theoretical explanation, or "synthesis," of a group of astronomical results can lead to a situatio…
Gamma Ray Bursts and Cosmic Ray Origin
C. D. Dermer
This paper presents the theoretical basis of the fireball/blast wave model, and some implications of recent results on GRB source models and cosmic-ray production from GRBs. BATSE…
Pair Production and Radiation Effects in Clouds Illuminated by Gamma Ray Sources
C. D. Dermer, M. Boettcher, E. P. Liang
Many classes of gamma-ray sources, such as gamma-ray bursts, blazars, Seyfert galaxies, and galactic black hole sources are surrounded by large amounts of gas and dust. X-rays and…
